iPS-derived cells help recover rat's motor funtion

Three types of "artificial nerves" developed by Osaka City University Hospital are shown in Osaka, western Japan, on Feb. 20, 2015. A hospital team successfully recovered a rat's motor function after implanting in the rat about four million induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells contained in such a body-absorbable artificial nerve structure.
