Neural stem cells (NSCs) hold considerable potential as a therapeutic tool for repair of the damaged nervous system. In the current study, we examined whether transplanted N-acetyl aspartyl-glutamate synthetase (NAAGS)-activated NSCs (NAAGS/NSCs) further improve neurological recovery following traumatic brain injury (TBI) in Sprague-Dawley rats.
