ScienceDaily (May 29, 2012) — Researchers from South Korea, Sweden, and the United States have collaborated on a project to restore neuron function to parts of the brain damaged by Huntington's disease (HD) by successfully transplanting HD-induced pluripotent stem cells into animal models.

It is always good to look the advances in neurodegenerative diseases more frequents than FA, a long way is needed to became a human therapy, but neuroscience and cell biology are progressing rapidly
