Mesenchymal stem cells exert a remarkable regenerative effect requiring minimal CNS integration: Commentary on: “Mesenchymal stem cells protect CNS neurons against glutamate excitotoxicity by inhibiting glutamate receptor expression and function” by Voulgari-Kokota et al.
The concept of repair of the nervous system by adult stem cells has recently evolved from the original hypothesis that tissue regeneration could have been achieved through stem cell differentiation…
