Untapped potential of stem cells could aid repair of spinal cord damage
by The Francis Crick Institute Image of uninjured mice spinal cord, with ependymal cells shown in red. Credit: Bruno Frederico Scientists at the Francis Crick Institute have identified a group of latent stem cells that respond to injury in the central nervous system of mice. If a similar type of cell exists in humans, they...
