Abstract:
In recent years, with the discovery of neural stem cells in the adult nervous system, as well as the continuous research of stem cells, the applications of stem cells in the treatment of ischemic stroke have drawn a broad attention of academicians.A great number of experimental studies have shown that stem cells can improve the post-stroke neurological function to some extent.This indicate a good prospect for clinical application.At present, researches related to the treatment of ischemic stroke with stem cells concentrate mainly on two ways.The first is to treat ischemic stroke through the activating of endogenous neural stem cells, and the second is to treat ischemic stroke through the transplantation of exogenous neural stem cells.This study is designed to review the present research status of the application of various stem cells for the treatment of ischemic stroke in animals and clinical studies, and to analyze existing problems and uncertainties.
