Combination of a peptide-modified gellan gum hydrogel with cell therapy in a lumbar spinal cord injury animal model

Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) is a highly incapacitating condition for which there is still no cure. Current clinical approaches are mainly based on palliative care, so there is a need to find possible treatments to SCI. Cellular transplantation is regarded with great expectation due to the therapeutic p...
