Derived motor neurons transplantation promotes nerve regeneration in a rodent model of a chronically denervated nerve through delayed adoption of a chronic denervation phenotype

Cashman R. Cashman, Ruifa Mi, Ahmet Höke

This study shows that transplanting motor neurons into chronically denervated nerves delays the adoption of a chronic denervation phenotype, maintaining Schwann cells in a pro-regenerative state.
