Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for the use of marrow adherent stem cells and their descendents; e.g., bone marrow-derived neural regenerating cells; in the treatment of various neurodegenerative disorders. In certain embodiments, bone marrow-derived neural regenerating cells transplanted to sites of neural degeneration stimulate growth and/or survival of host neurons.
