Selective pharmacological destruction of the meningeal cells during a critical ontogenetic period leads to specific malformation of both the cerebellar cortex and dentate gyrus <sup>[1]<\/sup>. Grafts of meningeal cells, which are derived from meninges overlying the cerebral cortex, in adult rat spinal cord lesions promotes axonal regrowth <sup>[2]<\/sup>.
