LUND UNIVERSITY CLINICAL TRIAL

[ADD IMAGE]

A clinical trial is going on at Lund University (Sweden) in which dopaminergic-precursor cells are injected into the brain. These cells are derived from embryonic stem cells (R,R).

Instead of dopaminergic neurons “dopaminergic precursor cells” are used, which could be interesting given these cells seem to graft and replicate better in the brain.

However, the cells are not embedded in a gel or have undergone modifications to improve survival and grafting.
