Striatal Xenotransplantation of Human Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells Attached to Microcarriers in Hemiparkinsonian Rats Ameliorates Behavioral Deficits without Provoking a Host Immune Response
Attachment of donor cells to microcarriers has been reported to make them more tolerable for transplantation into the brain. Human retinal pigment epithelial (hRPE) cells have been previously reported to contain enzymes for the production of dopa. Therefore, we examined the host immune response and...
