Abstract
This study was to explore curative effect of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) differentiated into nestin-positive cells transplantation on rat Parkinson's disease (PD) model. The PD rats were selected and allocated randomly into three groups. BMSCs with differentiation, BMSCs without differentiation and physiological saline were injected into right striatum of PD rat. The rotation test and immunofluorescence double staining were done. Frequency of rotation was significantly less in differentiated or non-differentiated BMSCs groups than that in normal saline group. Brdu/GFAP- and Brdu/NSE-positive cells appeared except BrdU/TH-positive cells. BMSCs differentiated had better effect than that of BMSCs without differentiated and physiological saline group.
