LiCl application restored motor function and memory in PD models. a The rotation number was decreased in rat transplanted with LiCl-treated NSCs. b Rats receiving LiCl-treated NSCs showed less latency to platform than that in sham and untreated NSCs transplantation group. c The swimming distance was decreased in LiCl-NSCs transplantation group. d–f Dendrite spine density was increased in PD models transplanted with LiCl-treated NSCs (e), compared to the animals with untreated cells (d). Statistical difference was determined by unpaired Student’s t tests and one way ANOVA. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001
