Integration of transplanted mouse embryonic cell–derived motor neurons into the spinal cord in vivo. Transverse section through the lumbar region of the spinal cord reveals that enhanced GFP+ axons exit the spinal cord via the ventral root and project along nerve branches that supply dorsal and ventral limb muscles. The pathway of axons is detected by neurofilament (NF) expression. Reprinted with permission from Cell Press (5).
