What molecular mechanisms underlie FSH's enhancement of dopaminergic differentiation in neural stem cells?

OPEN

The study demonstrates that FSH priming enhances dopaminergic neurogenesis from ovarian cortical NSPCs, but the signaling pathways and molecular mechanisms responsible for this effect remain unexplained. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for optimizing FSH-based protocols for Parkinson's disease cell therapy.
