Neural stem cells harvested from live brains by antibody-conjugated magnetic nanoparticles

Well, now for some followup from your doctor, your stroke hospital, your

fucking failures of stroke associations.  I have billions of neurons needed. But nothing will occur since we have NO STROKE LEADERSHIP to ask them to followup and execute the stroke strategy.  This might be the only way I ever fully recover.

Abstract

It stems from the magnetism: The extraction of stem/progenitor cells from the brain of live animals is possible using antibodies conjugated to magnetic nanoparticles (Ab-MNPs). The Ab-MNPs are introduced to a rat's brain with a superfine micro-syringe. The stem cells attach to the Ab-MNPs and are magnetically isolated and removed. They can develop into neurospheres and differentiate into different types of cells outside the subject body. The rat remains alive and healthy.
