FIG. 2.

Transplanted GFP⁺ Schwann cell (green) migration from OPF+ scaffold channels into the rostral and caudal SCI lesion at 1 week (A), 2 weeks (B), and 3 weeks (C) postpolymer scaffold implantation (Scale bars: 500 μm). (D): Quantified GFP area within the rostral and caudal lesions. p<0.05 for main effects of time postimplantation and lesion side. (E): High power image of GFP⁺ Schwann cells displaying spindle-shaped morphology (Scale bar: 50 μm). SCI, spinal cord injury; GFP, green fluorescent protein.
