BACKGROUND The development of regenerative therapy for human spinal cord injury(SCI)is dramatically restricted by two main challenges:the need for a safe source of functionally active and reproducible neural stem cells and the need of adequate animal models for preclinical *** reprogramming of somatic cells into neuronal and glial precursors might be a promising solution to the first *** use of non-human primates for preclinical studies exploring new treatment paradigms in SCI results in data with more translational relevance to human *** To investigate the safety and efficacy of intraspinal transplantation of directly reprogrammed neural precursor cells(drNpCs).METHODS Seven non-human primates with verified complete thoracic SCI were divided into two groups:drNpC group(n=4)was subjected to intraspinal transplantation of 5 million drNpCs rostral and caudal to the lesion site 2 wk post injury,and lesion control(n=3)was injected identically with the equivalent volume of *** Follow-up for 12 wk revealed that animals in the drNpC group demonstrated a significant recovery of the paralyzed hindlimb as well as recovery of somatosensory evoked potential and motor evoked potential of injured *** resonance diffusion tensor imaging data confirmed the intraspinal transplantation of drNpCs did not adversely affect the morphology of the central nervous system or cerebrospinal fluid *** immunohistochemical analysis showed that drNpCs maintained SOX2 expression characteristic of multipotency in the transplanted spinal cord for at least 12 wk,migrating to areas of axon growth *** Our data demonstrated that drNpC transplantation was safe and contributed to improvement of spinal cord function after acute SCI,based on neurological status assessment and neurophysiological recovery within 12 wk after *** functional improvement described was not associated with neuronal differentiation of th

The review focuses on the most important areas of cell therapy for spinal cord *** mucosa cells are promising for *** these cells is safe for *** use of olfactory mucosa cells is effective in restoring motor function due to the remyelination and regeneration of axons after spinal cord *** cells express neurotrophic factors that play an important role in the functional recovery of nerve tissue after spinal cord *** addition,it is possible to increase the content of neurotrophic factors,at the site of injury,exogenously by the direct injection of neurotrophic factors or their delivery using gene *** advantages of olfactory mucosa cells,in combination with neurotrophic factors,open up wide possibilities for their application in threedimensional and four-dimensional bioprinting technology treating spinal cord injuries.
