No man could ask for a better team in the heat of battle Acknowledgements A volume like this is beyond the scope of one person/editor’s effort. There are count- less hours spent contacting authors, reviewing submissions, and cross-c hecking ref- erences and publication permissions—tedious work that can be draining but remains essential for a project like this to succeed. This project would have failed miserably if it were not for the tireless effort and dedication of Imad Saeed Khan, M.D., whose assistance in making this volume a reality is tremendously appreciated by me and all those involved. Thank you, Imad, for your passion in helping make this idea a real- ity. I would also like to thank Fiona Sarne, Joy Evangeline Bramble, and Sabina Ashbaugh at Springer who, together, were always available to assist and shepherd this project through, and whose help made this volume a pleasure to work on. vii Contents Regulation of Subventricular Zone-Derived Cells Migration in the Adult Brain............................................................................................ 1 Vivian Capilla-Gonzalez , Emily Lavell , Alfredo Quiñones-Hinojosa , and Hugo Guerrero-Cazares The SVZ and Its Relationship to Stem Cell Based Neuro-oncogenesis ........................................................................................... 23 Yael Kusne and Nader Sanai Isolation and Characterization of Stem Cells from Human Central Nervous System Malignancies ......................................................... 33 Imad Saeed Khan and Moneeb Ehtesham The Role of Stem Cells in Pediatric Central Nervous System Malignancies ....................................................................................... 49 Branavan Manoranjan , Neha Garg , David Bakhshinyan , and Sheila K.
