This study characterized adult brain perivascular cells derived from human neural tissue concerning neural and mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) marker expression, transcriptomics, and mesodermal and inherent neuroectodermal differentiation potential in vitro and in vivo after in utero transplantation and showed a lack of an innate neuronal but high mesodermal differentiation potential. Because of their relationship to MSCs, these adult brain perivascular mesodermal cells are of great interest for possible autologous therapeutic use.
