Research Highlights |
 |
The present results suggest that human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells significantly ameliorate the clinical severity of acute inflammatory central nervous system diseases in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Our findings indicate that these effects operate, at least in part, through the ample production of anti-inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-10 and indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase, and by inducing a shift toward the Th2 phenotype in the lymph node. | | |

Research Highlights |
 |
Rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells expressing brain-derived neurotrophic factor were obtained by gene transfection, and transplanted into rats with spinal cord injury. These cells could thus play a dual role, simultaneously providing stem cells and neurotrophic factors. | | |

Research Highlights |
 |
Human olfactory mucosa-derived olfactory ensheathing cell transplantation into rats with acute spinal cord injury promotes regeneration, which is possibly associated with reduction of Nogo-A expression. | | |

Research Highlights |
 |
This study used atomic force microscopy to observe morphological changes in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transfected with caveolin-1. The lipid raft marker protein caveolin-1 was found to regulate mesenchymal stem cell differentiation into neuron-like cells. | | |
