Abstract

Following spinal cord injury, significant losses in the neural and stromal structures occur. This event contributes to the development of scar tissue that may hinder or prevent the regeneration and formation of functional neural tissue. The regenerative potential of stem cells to reverse or prevent the progression of neural injury has driven substantial interest in their clinical application. The aim of this article is to review the current understanding regarding the promise of stem cell therapy in the setting of spinal cord injuries.
