Figure 1.

Overview of various stem cell types explored for their potential in SCI treatment. This figure provides a visual summary of the four major stem cell types discussed in the review article: embryonic stem cells (ESCs), induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs). Each stem cell type is represented by a separate section in the figure, highlighting their unique advantages and potential differentiation into different types of neural cells for SCI therapy. The figure aims to facilitate understanding of the distinct characteristics and capabilities of these stem cell types, enabling researchers to optimize their use in regenerative medicine applications for SCI treatment.
