Extracellular matrix-regulated neural differentiation of human multipotent marrow progenitor cells enhances functional recovery after spinal cord injury.
RatSpinal cord injuryUnspecifiedn = 24 animals randomised to four groups with 6 per groupTwo bilateral injections into the lesion siteAfter spinal cord injury
Model: Acute spinal cord injury with bilateral injection into the lesion site
Tenascin-cytotactin with cytokines enhanced neuronal marker expression and produced significant functional repair by day 42, whereas chondroitin sulfate reduced neuronal marker expression.
