Research Abstract |
Many bone marrow-derived macrophages were found to accumulate in lesion cores of stroke and traumatic brain injuries. Because most of the cells expressed a multipotent cell marker in the brain, NG2 chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan as well as a macrophage marker Iba1, they were termed BINCs (Brain Iba1^+/NG2^+Cells). BINCs exerted neuroprotective actions and promoted regeneration and restoration of injured tissue by releasing neuroprotective growth factors and scavenging degenerated cellsand tissues. We found that injection of a cytokine mixture (IL3 and GM-CSF) markedly ameliorated traumatic brain injury and Parkinson’s disease.
