TL;DR: It is suggested that cultured, banked human BMSCs may be effective in treating sepsis in high-risk patient groups because they have been successfully given to humans and can easily be cultured and might be used without human leukocyte antigen matching.

TL;DR: It is shown that, in a strain of mice incapable of developing cells of the myeloid and lymphoid lineages, transplanted adult bone marrow cells migrated into the brain and differentiated into cells that expressed neuron-specific antigens.

TL;DR: It is shown that in a German family with Parkinson's disease a missense mutation in the ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1) gene causes a partial loss of the catalytic activity of this thiol protease, which could lead to aberrations in the proteolytic pathway and aggregation of proteins.

TL;DR: Results indicate that some microglia and astroglia arise from a precursor that is a normal constituent of adult bone marrow, and some bone marrow-derived cells surprisingly expressed the astroglial marker glial fibrillary acidic protein.

TL;DR: The finding that VR1 is expressed not only in primary sensory neurons but also in several brain nuclei is of great importance in that it places VRs in a much broader perspective than pain perception.
