Co-transplantation of Schwann and Bone Marrow Stromal Cells Promotes Locomotor Recovery in the Rat Contusion Model of Spinal Cord Injury

Objective: Previous studies have shown that transplantation of bone marrow stromalcells (BMSCs) into the contused spinal cord improves functional recovery and that administrationof Schwann cells (SCs) after spinal cord injury (SCI) facilitates axonal regeneration.Although the efficacy of these treat...
