Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Neural stem cells transplantation can be used to cure cerebral palsy (CP).
OBJECTIVE: To summarize the investigative situation and new progress about neural stem cells transplantation for the treatment of CP.
METHODS: A computer-based research was performed on the CNKI database and PubMed database (1999-01/2011-04) to search the related articles about neural stem cells transplantation for CP. The key words were “cerebral palsy, neural stem cell, transplantation” in English and Chinese. The articles related to the neural stem cells transplantation for CP was selected, and for the articles in the same field, we selected the articles published recently or in the authorized journals. There were 119 articles after the initial survey. Then 28 articles related to neural stem cells transplantation were selected according to the inclusion criteria.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Neural stem cells transplantation combined with neurenergen 3 could promote the recovery of the function in the child with CP and point out the direction for the future treatment of CP.
