Grafts of Genetically Modified Schwann Cells to the Spinal Cord: Survival, Axon Growth, and Myelination

Schwann cells naturally support axonal regeneration after injury in the peripheral nervous system, and have also shown a significant, albeit limited, ability to support axonal growth and remyelination after grafting to the central nervous system (CNS). It is possible that Schwann cell-induced axonal...
