Using a transection paradigm to enhance the repair mechanisms of an investigational human cell therapy
2022-02-23
Abstract excerpt
One promising strategy in cell therapies for Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is to harness a patient’s own cells to provide neuroprotection in areas of the brain affected by neurodegeneration. No treatment exists to replace cells in the brain. Thus, our goal has been to support sick neurons and slow neurodegeneration by transplanting living repair tissue from the peripheral nervous system into the substantia nigra of tho...
