Summary:
Researchers say they've lessened the effects of stroke in rats by transplanting human bone marrow stem cells into the rodents' brains. The treatment also seemed to help rats fight a condition similar to human cerebral palsy. Researchers observed that movement skills in the stroke-afflicted rats improved by 25 percent, and a similar improvement in treated rats affected with a condition equivalent to human cerebral palsy after stem cell treatment.
