The scientists at the Albert Einstein School of Medicine have managed to transplant bone marrow cells in the infarction brain. To carry out the experiment, a cerebral infarction occurred in some of the rats in the sample. Seven days after transplantation, both in damaged brains and the rest, stem cells became cells that constitute the basic structure of the brain.

In addition, blood vessels were created to feed the new established cells. Then, between 21 and 45 days after the intervention, most cells became mature neurons and other types of brain cells. Now scientists want to get the stem cells of the infarcted patients to be cultured in the laboratory and the tissues produced in the same laboratory, so that they can be transplanted to the patient.
