The intravenous delivery of adult neural precursor cells (NPC) has shown promising results in enabling cerebroprotection, brain tissue remodeling, and neurological recovery in young, healthy stroke mice. However, the translation of cell-based therapies to clinical settings has encountered challenges. It remained unclear if adult NPCs could induce brain tissue remodeling and recovery in mice with hyperlipidemia, a prevalent vascular risk factor in stroke patients.
