Abstract
Beyond impaired motor and sensory function, neuropathic pain and loss of bladder control caused by spinal cord injuries (SCIs) can severely affect quality of life. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Fandel et al. (2016) show that transplanted human ESC-derived cells biased to produce inhibitory interneurons significantly improve pain and bladder function in rodent SCI models.Entities:
