Model: Complete spinal cord transection
Both graft types produced only discrete and comparable hindlimb improvement with similar tissue sparing and sprouting, acute grafting fostered limited supraspinal regeneration, and no differences were found between acute, 2 week or 4 week delayed transplantation, suggesting the effects were not att…
