Model: Spinal cord contusion at the T9 to T10 level
Rictor overexpression attenuated the acute inflammatory response and cell death, shifted macrophages around the lesion from M1 to M2, increased neurogenesis at the lesion epicentre and promoted tissue repair and functional recovery relative to control vector.
