【Abstract】 Objective To review the progress in the treatment of spinal cord injury (SCI) by graft of neural
stem cells (NSCs) or bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) as well as immune characteristics of two stem
cells. Methods Different kinds of documents were widely collected, and then immunologic characteristics of NSCs and
BMSCs were summarized. The therapy of SCI by stem cell transplantation was reviewed. Additionally, some problems in
treatment were analyzed. Results Experimental study showed that graft of NSCs and BMSCs can promote the functional
recovery of the injured spinal cord in animals. Due to immunologic properties of two stem cells, rejection reaction of
transplantation could produce a harmful effect on SCI treatment. Conclusion Transplantation of NSCs or BMSCs might be
an effective measure for SCI treatment, but immunologic rejection reaction must be considered.
