Zusammenfassung

Intraperitoneal transplantation of human umbilical cord blood-derived mononuclear cells led to the “homing“ of these cells specifically to a hypoxic-ischemic lesion in perinatal rats. Motor deficits resulting from the lesion were alleviated upon transplantation (1). However, the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the functional improvement are still unclear. As neuronal differentiation of transplanted cells seems to be a rare or absent event in vivo, we propose secondary mechanisms, which might be responsible for the therapeutic effects. One possibility is that transplanted cells might contribute to a…
