Human Neural Precursor Cells Promote Neurologic Recovery in a Viral Model of Multiple Sclerosis

Transient presence of human embryonic stem cell-derived neural precursor cells exedrts powerful immunomodulatory effects and mediates recovery

In a viral model of multiple sclerosis, human embryonic stem cell-derived neural precursor cells (hNPCs) resulted in improved motor skills with a reduction in neuroinflammation, decreased demyelination, and enhanced remyelination.
