Transplanted olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) are able to remyelinate demyelinated axons and support regrowth of transected axons after transplantation into the adult CNS. Transplanted Schwann cells (SCs) share these repair properties but have limitations imposed on their behavior by the presence

## Abstract A series of polymeric biomaterials including poly (methyl acrylate) (PMA), chitosan (CHT), poly(ethyl acrylate) (PEA), poly(hydroxyethyl acrylate) (PHEA), and a series of random copolymers containing ethyl acrylate and hydroxyethyl acrylate monomeric units were tested __in vitro__ as cu
In this study, the cytotoxicity of 13 fibrous samples of known fiber number and dimensions has been established in P388D1 cells. The cells were exposed in vitro to dust concentrations of 10 or 50 pglml and, after incubation for 24 or 48 hours, any changes in cellular viability, lactate dehydrogenase
Random copolypeptides and block copolypeptides were synthesized, and an interaction between these polypeptide membranes and the cells was studied by a cell culture method (cell line, Ca. 9.22). In random copolypeptides composed of y-methyl L-glutamate and y-benzyl L-glutamate, cell attachment and c
