Abstract
Development and maintenance of the nervous system are governed by a scheduled cell death mechanism known as apoptosis. Very much how neurons survive and function depends on the degree of death in differentiating pseudo-neuronal cells produced from neural stem cells. Different inducers can affect the degree of death in these cells: hormones, medicines, growth factors, and others. Developing inventive therapies for neurodegenerative illnesses depends on a knowledge of how these inducers impact mortality in differentiated pseudo-neuronal cells. Using flow cytometry, Western blotting, and fluorescence microscopy among other techniques, the degree of death in many pseudo-neuronal cells is evaluated. Flow cytometry generates dead cell counts from measurements of cell size, granularity, and DNA content. Whereas fluorescence microscopy visualizes dead cells using fluorescent dyes or antibodies, Western blotting detects caspases and Bcl-2 family proteins. This review attempts to offer a thorough investigation of present studies on death in differentiated pseudo-neuronal cells produced from neural stem cells under the effect of different inducers. Through investigating how these inducers influence death, the review aims to provide information that might direct the next studies and support treatment plans for neurodegenerative diseases. With an eye toward inducers like retinoic acid, selegiline, cytokines, valproic acid, and small compounds, we examined research to evaluate death rates. The findings offer important new perspectives on the molecular processes guiding death in these cells. There is still a complete lack of understanding of how different factors affect the molecular processes that lead to death, so understanding these processes can contribute to new therapeutic approaches to treat neurodegenerative diseases.
