Abstract
⺠We tested the neuroprotective effect MT-II in spinal cord injury in rats. ⺠MT-II improved motor function in rats treated with two doses of the protein. ⺠MT-II treatment increased spared spinal cord tissue. ⺠The neuroprotective effect of MT-II was dose-dependent. ⺠MT-II doses of 10 and 100 μg were neuroprotective against spinal cord injury.
