Human Umbilical Cord Blood-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy Promotes Functional Recovery of Contused Rat Spinal Cord through Enhancement of Endogenous Cell Proliferation and Oligogenesis

<table>BBB scores of rats with SCI before and after hUCB-MSCs transplantation at 7 days after SCI. (a) hUCB-MSC transplantation group displayed significantly improved scores compared with control at 6 weeks after transplantation. (b) Cavity volume between the hUCB-MSC and control groups at 6 weeks after transplantation. The values of the cavity volume of the hUCB-MSC group were lower than those of the control group.
