The present invention relates to a method for differentiating stem cells into neurons, and is characterized in that stem cells are treated with a culture additive comprising lipoic acid, albumin, hydrocortisone, and insulin after culturing for differentiation into neurons. Since the neurons produced according to the method for producing neurons of the present invention express nestin, neuroD1, neuron-specific enolase (NSE), neurofilament (NF), tau, microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2), and doublecortin (DCX), just as normal mature neurons do, the neurons of the present invention can be effectively used in various therapeutic agents for neurons and as cell origins for an in vitro study system.

Method for differentiating stem cells into neurons

The present invention relates to a method for differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. More specifically, the invention relates to a method for differentiating mesenchymal stem cells to neural cells by treating the mesenchymal stem cells with low-frequency sound waves. The differentiation method of the present invention can induce differentiation even with low-cost media rather than induced neural differentiation mediums which are expensive due to addition of growth factors, and the neural cells differentiated according to the present invention may be useful for treatment of neurological diseases.

Method for inducing differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells to nerve cells using sound waves

The present invention relates to a method for differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells or dental pulp stem cells. More specifically, the invention relates to a method for differentiating stem cells to neural cells by applying mesenchymal stem cells or dental pulp stem cells with a low-frequency electromagnetic field. The differentiation method according to the present invention can induce differentiation even with low-cost mediums rather than induced neural differentiation mediums which are expensive due to addition of growth factors, and the neural cells differentiated according to the present invention may be useful for treatment of neurological brain diseases.
