Effects of ensheathing cells transplanted into photochemically damaged spinal cord.

abstract：:The primate pulvinar connects with the entire array of known visual areas and is postulated to play a role in selective visual attention. Recently, five separate neurochemical subdivisions of a region termed the inferior pulvinar (PI) complex were identified in monkeys. In the present study, similar histochemical proc...
