Safety of Intraparenchymal Injection of Allogenic Placenta Mesenchymal Stem Cells Derived Exosome in Patients Undergoing Decompressive Craniectomy Following Malignant Middle Cerebral Artery Infarct, A Pilot Randomized Clinical Trial
Conclusions: Intraparenchymal implantation of MSC ‑EXO showed no post‑interventional adverse effects in five ischemic stroke patients. It is proposed Local injection Exosome treatment following mMCAI can be safe and in future, it would be applied as a supportive, restorative and preventive treatment in patients who suffer from acute ischemic st roke and post ischemic disability

Mesenchymal stem cells provide neuroprotection by regulating heat stroke-induced brain inflammation - Zhang Y, Deng Z, Li Y, Yuan R, Yang M, Zhao Y, Wang L, Zhou F, Kang H.
Heat stroke (HS) is the most acute type of heat illness accompanied with serious central nervous system (CNS) dysfunction. Despite the pathological process being clearly studied, effective treatment is deficient. Currently, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) ha...

Stroke drug boosts stem cell therapy for spinal cord injury in rats
(University of California - San Diego) In a UC San Diego study, rats with spinal cord injuries experienced a three-fold increase in motor activity when treated with neural progenitor cells that had been pre-conditioned with a modified form of tPA, a drug commonly used to treat non-hemorrhagic stroke.

Rutgers Genetics Research Center awarded $6 million federal grant
(Rutgers University) The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) has awarded a five-year grant worth up to $6,034,323 to RUCDR Infinite Biologics, a unit of Rutgers' Human Genetics Institute of New Jersey. With the new grant, the Rutgers operation will take over management of the NINDS stem cell repository. RUCDR also will provide a comprehensive range of stem-cell related services to researchers throughout the world investigating diseases including Parkinson's, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Huntington's.

Scientists sniff out unexpected role for stem cells in the brain
(NIH/National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke) For decades, scientists thought that neurons in the brain were born only during the early development period and could not be replenished. More recently, however, they discovered cells with the ability to divide and turn into new neurons in specific brain regions. Scientists at the National Institutes of Health report that newly formed brain cells in the mouse olfactory system -- the area that processes smells -- play a critical role in maintaining proper connections.

Future heat stroke treatment found in dental pulp stem cells
(Cell Transplantation Center of Excellence for Aging and Brain Repair) Intravenous injections of stem cells derived from human exfoliated deciduous tooth pulp have a protective effect in mice against brain damage from heat stroke. The cells had significantly higher proliferation rates than bone marrow-derived stem cells, were easy to harvest, and expressed growth factors, including vascular endothelial growth factor, that promoted the migration and differentiation of neuronal progenitor cells. The procedure could treat human patients by preventing the neurological damage caused by heat stroke.
