Local Delivery of Chondroitinase ABC Promotes Neuronal Differentiation of Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Neural Grafts in a Spinal Cord Injury Model
comments
Functional recovery following spinal cord injury SCI is limited due to a cascade of cellular and biomolecular events, termed secondary injury, that lead to cell loss and the expression of growth inhibitory molecules...
Most cell therapy products require an ex vivo cell processing step in a polymeric culture device. The transition from open systems such as tissue culture polystyrene TCPS flasks to functionally closed systems such as cell culture bags often entails a change in materials in contact with cells...
