The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of bone marrow nucleated cell (BMNC) and multiple mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantations in spinal cord injury (SCI). A patient with total SC interruption at the Th2-3 level underwent experimental therapy with BMNC and MSC transplantations followed with intensive neurorehabilitation treatment. At admission, 6 h after SCI, the patient was scored ASIA A, had a Th1 sensation level, paraplegia with sphincter palsy, and was without the ability to control trunk movement. Neurophysiology examination showed bilateral axonal damage to the motor and sensory neural fibers with no motor unit potentials or peripheral motor nerve conduction in the lower extremities. The standard therapy had been applied and had not produced any positive results. The patient was treated with autologous BMNCs injected intravenously (3.2 \u00d7 10\n                    <jats:sup>9<\/jats:sup>\n                    ) and intrathecally (0.5 \u00d7 10\n                    <jats:sup>9<\/jats:sup>\n                    ) 10 weeks after the SCI and with five rounds of MSCs every 3-4 months (1.3-3.65 \u00d7 10\n                    <jats:sup>7<\/jats:sup>\n                    ) administered via lumbar puncture. Total number of transplanted MSC cells during the course of treatment was 1.54 \u00d7 10\n                    <jats:sup>8<\/jats:sup>\n                    . There were no complications related to transplantations and no side effects related to the therapy during 2 years of treatment. The ASIA score improved from A to C\/D (from 112 to 231 points). The sensation level expanded from Th1 to L3-4, and the patient's ability to control the body trunk was fully restored. Bladder filling sensation, bladder control, and anal sensation were also restored. Muscle strength in the left lower extremities improved from plegia to deep paresis (1 on the Lovett scale). The patient's ability to move lower extremities against gravity supported by the movements in quadriceps was restored. The patient gained the ability to stand in a standing frame and was able to walk with the support of hip and knee ortheses. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed that at the Th2\/Th3 level, where the hemorrhagic necrosis was initially observed, small tissue structures appeared. Our results suggest that repeated intrathecal infusions of MSCs might have the potential to produce clinically meaningful improvements for SCI patients.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3727\/096368915x687796","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,4,13]],"date-time":"2015-04-13T18:45:17Z","timestamp":1428950717000},"page":"661-672","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":66,"title":["Continuous Improvement after Multiple Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantations in a Patient with Complete Spinal Cord Injury"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Danuta","family":"Jarocha","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Transplantation, Polish-American Institute of Pediatrics, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Cracow, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Olga","family":"Milczarek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Children Surgery, Polish-American Institute of Pediatrics, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Cracow, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anna","family":"Wedrychowicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Endocrinology, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Cracow, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stanislaw","family":"Kwiatkowski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Children Surgery, Polish-American Institute of Pediatrics, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Cracow, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marcin","family":"Majka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Transplantation, Polish-American Institute of Pediatrics, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Cracow, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,4,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-096368915X687796","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12015-011-9312-0"},{"key":"bibr2-096368915X687796","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/10790268.2008.11760704"},{"key":"bibr3-096368915X687796","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.expneurol.2004.05.045"},{"key":"bibr4-096368915X687796","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/14653249.2010.510506"},{"key":"bibr5-096368915X687796","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3727\/000000006783981503"},{"key":"bibr6-096368915X687796","first-page":"215","volume":"44","author":"Bobis S.","year":"2006","journal-title":"Folia Histochem.
