Abstract
Gao, Kim, and colleagues recently reported that clonal populations of CD4T cells could be detected in mice that underwent spinal cord injury (SCI). A subset of clones mediated enhanced motor recovery and suppressed inflammation. Further studies may point towards novel cell therapies for SCI, for which care is presently supportive only.
