Transplants of Encapsulated Rat Choroid Plexus Cells Exert Neuroprotection in a Rodent Model of Huntington's Disease
Choroid plexus (CP) epithelial cells secrete several neurotrophic factors and have been used in transplantation studies designed to impart neuroprotection against central nervous system (CNS) trauma. In the present study, CP was isolated from adult rats, encapsulated within alginate microcapsules, a...
