Outline of Final Research Achievements

Spinal cord injury has dismal prognosis even in this modern era. Convection-enhanced delivery (CED) is a method for distributing small and large molecules locally in the interstitial space of the spinal cord. Delivering these molecules to the spinal cord is otherwise difficult due to the blood spinal cord barrier. This study revealed that regional infusion of drugs into the spinal cord via CED is a promising strategy for treating spinal cord injury. In addition, we investigated the safety and efficacy of stem cell transplantation (multilineage-differentiating stress enduring cell (Muse cell) transplantation) in spinal cord injury.
