Summary of the studies that applied cell replacement strategies to improve remyelination.
Disease Model | Transplanted Cells | Co-Intervention | Outcomes | Reference |
---|---|---|---|---|
SCI | OPC-committed NPCs | Chondroitinase ABC | Formation of nodes of Ranvier. Improvement in remyelination and motor functions. |
[90] |
SCI | NPCs | Overexpression of human arginine decarboxylase | Decreased glial scar formation. Increased remyelination and neuronal differentiation. Improvement in neurological outcomes. |
[87] |
MS (EAE) | NPCs | - | Decreased demyelination and astrogliosis. Increased remyelination and improvement in neurological scores. |
[96] |
SCI | Pre-OPCs | Glial scar ablation | Generation of new OLs and neurons. | [99] |
