Paralysed rats who received transplants of adult mouse brain stem cells were able to partially restore limb movement, researchers said in Wednesday's issue of The Journal of Neuroscience. Called neuronal precursors, the stem cells from the brains of adult mice are able to transform themselves into cells of the central nervous system and other tissues.
