Meningeal Foam Cells and Ependymal Cells in Axolotl Spinal Cord Regeneration

Meningeal Foam Cells and Ependymal Cells in Axolotl Spinal Cord Regeneration

A previously unreported population of foam cells (foamy macrophages) accumulates in the invasive fibrotic meninges during gap regeneration of transected adult Axolotl spinal cord (salamander Ambystoma mexicanum) and may act beneficially. Multinucleated giant cells (MNGCs) also occurred in the fibrot...
