Effects of BMSC combination with atorvastatin on MPO activity. Following the injury, MPO activity in spinal cord from SCI mice was significantly increased at 24 h after the damage in comparison to sham mice. Treatment with BMSC and atorvastatin significantly reduced the SCI-induced increase in MPO activity. A single treatment did not reduce the neutrophil infiltration in the injured spinal cord. *P < 0.05 versus SCI group, #P < 0.05 versus BMSC group.
