Abstract

The hypothesis is that induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) derived Schwann cells and/or macrophages can be transplanted into acellular nerve graft in repairing injured nervous system. The efficiency of iPSC seeded acellular nerve graft may mimic the autologous peripheral nerve graft.

Highlights

  • Brain and spinal cord injury conditions are non-reversible and current therapies are quite limited

  • The hypothesis is that induced pluripotent stem cells derived Schwann cells and/or macrophages can be transplanted into acellular nerve graft in repairing injured nervous system

  • The acellular grafts lost Schwann cells inside and the extracellular matrix suffers from somewhat disruption
