Abstract

Recent animal studies demonstrated that some kind of growth factors can ameliorate neurological deficits and bone marrow stromal cells (MSCs) transplantation also can improve neurological function after ischemic stroke. MSCs, including the primitive pluriopotent mesenchmal stem cell, are attractive targets for cell and gene therapy. When long-term stable expression of a potentially therapeutic transgene is desired, as is the case for the treatment of cerebrovascular diseases, it may be appropriate to employ some viral vectors.
