...,the pharmacologically active microcarriers (PAM), that may be used as
potential transplantable matrices of pluripotent stem cells for tissue
engineering and regenration.
In the brain, the use of microparticular scaffolds like PAM that have
demonstrated their efficacy by combining bioactive molecules such as NTF
and ECM molecules and cells in the same device in an animal paradigm of
neurodegenerative diseases seem to be an interesting tool for a near future
application in clinical trials.

NTF : Neurotrophic factor


ECM : Extra cellular matrix
