Epothilone, a cancer drug, appears to be effective in reducing scar tissue formation in spinal cord injuries and stimulating neuroregeneration, a new study reports.
Researchers report axon regeneration can be boosted by using optogenetics or chemogenetics to enhance neural activity.
Findings could pave the way for developing new treatments to restore vision and repair retinal damage.
A new study challenges conventional belief that myelin can inhibit neuronal growth. Researchers report rat myelin stimulated axon outgrowths in neural precursor cells, and human iPSCs.
A new study reveals reverting neurons to an early growth state can help reconnect severed spinal cord nerves in rodent models of SCI.
A new study reveals gene therapy in combination with neurosurgery can help to improve the rate of survival and promote regeneration of nerve fibers.
