Histological evaluation of the injured site after spinal cord injury and astrocytes transplantation in mice. A H & E staining of the injured center of the spinal cord at 7 dpi. Scale bar = 500 μm. B Quantification of the area of the injured site of the spinal cord at 7 dpi. C Representative axial MRI images at 28 dpi in control, injury, A1 astrocyte-transplanted, and A2 astrocyte-transplanted groups. D Quantification of (C) by measuring the percentage of lesion area surrounding the center of lesion core. E H & E staining of the injured center of the spinal cord at 28 dpi. Scale bar = 50 μm. F Quantification of the histologic score of the injured site of the spinal cord at 7 dpi. Error bars show means ± SD (n = 6 in each group). **p < 0.01 compared to the injury group
