Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Abstract

Cultured neural stem/progenitor cells from human fetal brain were transplanted into the retrobulbar and suprachoroid space in rabbits with laser-induced damage to the retina. Transplanted cells survived, retained multipotent activity, migrated into the zone of injury, and stimulated reparation and regeneration in the traumatized retina.
