In Vitro Culture Duration does Not Impact the Ability of Encapsulated Choroid Plexus Transplants to Prevent Neurological Deficits in an Excitotoxin-Lesioned Rat Model of Huntington's Disease
Delivery of neurotrophic molecules to the CNS is a potential treatment strategy for preventing the neuronal loss accompanying many neurological disorders. Choroid plexus (CP) epithelial cells secrete a cocktail of neurotrophic factors, and encapsulated CP transplants are neuroprotective in animal mo...
