TOKYO, Japan — A stem cell treatment helped improve the motor function of two out of four patients with a spinal cord injury in the first clinical study of its kind, Japanese scientists said.

In the clinical study, the team transplanted 2 million iPSC-derived cells into the four patients, who were unable to move and had lost sensation due to spinal cord injuries. The degree of motor ...
