Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cell Transplantation Reduces White Matter Injury in a Fetal Goat Model
CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 30, Issue 12, December 2024.Preterm white matter injury (PWMI) is the most common type of brain injury in preterm infants. In this study, human OPCs (hOPCs) were administered to a fetal goat model of PWMI. Exogenous hOPCs can differentiate into mature oligodendrocytes in fetal goats and alleviate hypoxia‐ischemia‐induced PWMI. ABSTRACT Background Preterm white matter injury (PWMI)
