Transplanted embryonic stem cells can potentially treat the effects of spinal cord injury (SCI), yet a serious drawback has been the development of tumors following transplantation. A new study has found that co-transplanting embryonic stem cells and bone marrow stem cells suppressed tumor formation in laboratory mice, leading researchers to speculate that future and similar co-transplantation may lead to benefits for humans suffering the effects of SCI.
