Effects of microencapsulated olfactory ensheathing cell transplantation on neuropathic pain and P2X7 receptor expression in the L4-5 spinal cord segment
ConclusionsOEC and MC-OEC transplantation can relieve pain and reduce the expression level of P2 × 7 receptors in the L4-5 spinal cord segment. The therapeutic efficacy was better in the MC-OEC group than in the OEC group.
