Morphometric evaluation of the spared white and gray matter. The white matter (WM) was significantly spared in the spinal cord of grafted animals compared with SCI-only animals (*P < 0.05). No changes were found in the gray matter (GM) (A). This was confirmed by measuring the volume (mm3) of the white matter in five different parts of the spinal cord (front, 7 to 10 mm cranial; middle front, 3 to 6 mm cranial; center, between 2 mm cranial and caudal to the injury epicenter; middle back, 3 to 6 mm caudal; back, 7 to -10 mm caudal) (B).
