Research Abstract |
It was revealed by the assessment of motor functions(rotarrod, motor deficit score and cylinder test) that a rat model of periventricular leukomalasia(PVL) is appropriate to the model for a longer time. It became possible to induce oligodendrocytes and its progenitors(OPC) from mouse ES cells/iPS cells in vitro as the donor cells to PVL. In transplantation of iPS cells-derived OPC to PVL model rat, grafted cells can survive well in the white matter, revealing that some substances such as trophic factors will be needed for better survival rate.
