## Abstract Transplantation of Schwann cells (SCs) and olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) have emerged as very promising therapies for spinal cord repair. The important features of interaction between SCs and OECs are beginning to be appreciated, although the underlying mechanism remains unclear. I

## Abstract In a previous study we found that olfactory ensheathing cells transplanted into complete retrobulbar transections of the rat optic nerve mediated regeneration of severed retinal ganglion cell axons through the graft region. Although the regenerating axons were ensheathed by the transpla
## Abstract Human clinical trials have begun worldwide that use olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) to ameliorate the functional deficits following spinal cord injury. These trials have been initiated largely because numerous studies have reported that OECs transform into Schwann Cell (SC)βlike cell
## Abstract Schwann cells (SCs) and olfactory ensheathing glia (OEG) have both been used as cellular transplants to promote spinal cord repair. Both cell types support axonal regeneration and have beneficial effects on functional recovery. A significant difference between SCs and OEG is the effect
