Schematic presentation of the project timeline. Time of stroke induction by distal occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (dMCAO) serves as day zero for the MRI scans. Human neural stem cells (hNSCs) were intracortically implanted 7 days later. Repetitive measurements of bioluminescence imaging (BLI) for graft vitality monitoring and resting-state fMRI (rsfMRI) for functional connectivity networks of the brain are indicated on a separate time ray with day 0 at the day of implantation. At 12 weeks after stroke induction, some of the mice were sacrificed to process brains for histology (IHC). Weeks after stroke and days after engraftment, respectively, are marked along the timeline.
