Furthermore, when HMGBl-I was intravenously administered to cerebral infarction model mice after creation of cerebral infarction, bone marrow-derived cells expressing nerve cell markers were detected in their brain. A marked cerebral infarct-reducing effect was observed in Mice intravenously administered with H-MGB-i as compared to the control. The post-cerebral infarction survival rate was increased in the intravenous HMGB--1 administration group. The involvement of bone marrow pluripotent stem cells in the process ofbone fracture heanlig was assessed using mice, and the result demonstrated that bone marrow-derived cells distant from the damaged site migrated to the bone fracture site to repair the damaged tissue.
