Researchers created a human spinal cord organoid, injured it, then applied an experimental therapy. What happened next was ...

Axon regeneration and central nervous system repair represent critical frontiers in neuroscience research, offering promise for restoring communication and function after injury. Following trauma, ...

Axons, the fundamental output structures of neurons, play a pivotal role in transmitting electrical signals over long ...

Axonal regeneration: A balancing act. Following injury, neurons must navigate the trade-off between stress coping and regenerative growth. The transcription factor AhR acts as a molecular sensor, ...

Effective axon regeneration is critical for restoring nerve function in patients with axon injury-related neurological diseases, yet adult mammals show limited regenerative capacity in central axonal ...

Capitalizing on the flexibility of tiny cells inside the body's smallest blood vessels may be a powerful spinal cord repair strategy, new research suggests. In mouse experiments, scientists introduced ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Polymerized laminin promoted axonal regeneration and functional recovery in rats and dogs. Eight people treated ...

Older Americans are increasingly active, and this lifestyle shift has contributed to the rise in average age of a person experiencing a spinal cord injury. The changing demographic calls for a better ...

Damage to axons in the central nervous system (CNS) typically results in permanent functional deficits. Boosting intrinsic growth programs can dramatically augment the axon regeneration of injured ...

The central nervous system (CNS) in adult mammals has limited regeneration capacity, and traumatic injuries to the CNS usually lead to permanent functional impairment.

Axonal regrowth is a crucial process for forming a compensatory neuronal network after spinal cord injury (SCI), but this is very limited in the adult mammalian central nervous system.
