Methods These OECs were dissociated from olfactory bulb and olfactory mucosa of SD rats and transplanted to the injuried region of spinal cord injury rats. The function of nerve, motor evoked potential of hind legs and the histopathlogical diversities of injuried spinal cord were observed. Results The OECs grafts into the SCI area could survive longer time. The BBB scale, incubation stage of EP and histopathologic manifestations showed that the group with transplanted OECs regained more improvement in hindlimb than the control group. Conclusion The OECs of two sources have the same ability to regain and improve the axonal function which can promote axons regeneration of SCI.展开更多

The proliferation of transplanted olfactory ensheathing cells depends on various environmental factors and effective cues, which may include electrical fields(EFs). In this study, we investigated the proliferative capacity, morphologic alterations of olfactory ensheathing cells derived from neonate rat that occurd when exposed to two EFs of 20 Hz, 50 mV and20 Hz, 100 mV for 6 h. For both EF treatments, the MTT results revealed that the cellular proliferation of exposed group during the last 6 h of the experiment was statistically higher than that of control group. Then, we investigated morphological structure changes in the cells stained by Coomassie brilliant blue. Compared with control group, most of cells were present at intensively proliferating appearance including the microfilaments were long and thick and the accumulated appearance of cells. It is conceivable that electrical fields as a new approach may promote the growth and proliferation of OECs and may be engineered to control the survival of transplanted OECs in injured spinal cord.Although our results have been suggesting that EFs may be non-chemical strategies for cell proliferation, the fundamental mechanisms remain to be elucidated.展开更多
