Letter to the editor regarding “Local versus distal transplantation of human neural stem cells following chronic spinal cord injury” by Cheng et al.

We read the recently published article "Local versus distal transplantation of human neural stem cells following chronic spinal cord injury" by Cheng et al. [1], with great interest. The article demonstrated "The transplantation of human neural stem cells (hNSCs) into the rat's chronically injured spinal cord led to significant functional recovery when injected distally but not locally to the site of chronic spinal cord injury (SCI)." Cheng et al. [1] evaluated functional recovery, post transplantation, using the 21-point Basso, Beattie, and Bresnahan locomotor score.
