Complete assessment requires at least 8 weeks of consistent protocol adherence
A deficiency in BDNF can exacerbate oxidative stress in neurons by reducing CREB activity and increasing NF-B binding activity [86,87]
Because IB normally binds to NF-B, the latter's nuclear localization sequence (NLS) is masked, resulting in its main location in the cytoplasm, while removal of IB exposes the masked site to induce the nuclear translocation of NF-B, making it bind to the promoter regions of its downstream genes [34], such as cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), IL-6, and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)
Although there was no clear evidence of the sole role of the MSCs given the differences of both protocols and even if the intensive neurorehabilitation demonstrated to have always a slight improvement compared to the ARP, an evident positive progression was observed after transplantation (T1), with all dogs from the INSCP achieving ambulation in this period (Figure 3)
