FeaturedNeurologyNeuroscience·April 1, 2026·8 min readResearchers Unlock the Key to Axon RegenerationResearchers identified the AHR protein as a "molecular brake" that stops nerve regrowth after injury. Inhibiting AHR shifts neurons from a stress-management state to a regenerative state, offering a new path for treating spinal cord injuries.Read More
