Evaluation of glial cell migration following transplantation can be difficult as the force of the injection itself may cause the cells to become immediately dispersed. In this study we evaluated the extent of spread of cells after injection of 1 ~1 of a dissociated cell suspension (50,000 celldpl) i

Studies were carried out to determine if an intraspinal transplant (Trpl) of fetal spinal cord tissue or hind limb exercise (Ex) affected the changes in myosin heavy chain (MyHC) composition or myofiber size that occur following a complete transection (Tx) of the lower thoracic spinal cord of the ad
The ependymal cells in rat host spinal cord were studied after transplantation of fetal cerebral cortex homografts. Adult Sprague-Dawley male rats had pieces of El4 fetal rat cortex pressure-injected into the spinal cord at T6. The tissue was prepared for light and electron microscopy and studied fo
Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) promotes axonal regeneration in the peripheral nervous system and this effect is enhanced by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). We decided, therefore, to study the effects of these factors on axonal regeneration in the adult rat spinal cord. Semipermeable pol
