Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) results in direct and indirect damage to neural tissues,
which results in motor and sensory dysfunction, dystonia, and pathological reflex that …

With technological advances in basic research, the intricate mechanism of secondary
delayed spinal cord injury (SCI) continues to unravel at a rapid pace. However, despite our …

We report that prospectively isolated, human CNS stem cells grown as neurospheres (hCNS-
SCns) survive, migrate, and express differentiation markers for neurons and …

Recent advances in stem cell biology present significant opportunities to advance clinical
applications of stem cell–based therapies for spinal cord injury (SCI). In this review, the …

Angiogenesis is touted as a fundamental procedure in the regeneration and restoration of
different tissues. The induction of de novo blood vessels seems to be vital to yield a …

Stem cell transplants into spinal cord lesions may help to improve regeneration and spinal
cord function. Clinical studies are necessary for transferring preclinical findings from animal …

Background and Purpose—Intravenously delivered human umbilical cord blood cells
(HUCBC) have been previously shown to improve functional recovery of stroked rats. To …

The first step essential in the search for a cure of human spinal cord injury (SCI) is to
appreciate the complexity of the disorder. In this regard, it is not only the loss of ambulation …

This study evaluates functional recovery after transplanting human bone marrow-derived
stromal cells (BMSCs) into contusion models of spinal cord injury (SCI). The authors used a …

When human umbilical cord blood cells (HUCBCs) are administered intravenously after a
middle cerebral artery occlusion, they reliably produce behavioral and anatomical recovery …
