Improvement of neurological function in rats with spinal cord injury after the transplantation of neural stem cells directly differentiated from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells

Objective To study the effect and mechanism of neurological function recovery in rats with spinal cord injury ( SCI) rats after transplantation of neural stem cells which are directly differentiated from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells ( BMSC ) ,and to investigate the suitable engraftment time. Methods BMSC at 3rd passage were differentiated into neural stem cells ( NSC) , and immunofluorescence staining was used to identify
