Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) treatment in combination with transplantation of bone marrow cells is not superior to G-CSF treatment alone after cortical stroke in spontaneously hypertensive rats

Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) and bone marrow derived mononuclear cells (BM-MNC) have both been shown to improve functional outcome following experimental stroke. These effects are associated with increased angiogenesis and neurogenesis. In the present study, we aimed to determine sy...
