[Marrow mesenchymal stem cell transplantation with sodium alginate gel for repair of spinal cord injury in mice].

Objective: To investigate the effects of sodium alginate gels on marrow mesenchymal stem cell transplantation for repair of spinal cord injury (SCI) in mice.

Methods: In the present study, effects of different sterilization methods and concentrations of sodium alginate gels were examined. Marrow mesenchymal stem cells (mMSCs) were isolated from mice and cultured.
