A new study reveals how the tiny mir-79 molecule regulates neural development in roundworms.
Researchers have identified a chain reaction which triggers the regrowth of some damaged nerve cell branches. The finding could someday help improve treatments for nerve injuries which can cause loss of sensation or paralysis.
Researchers reprogram astrocytes to become functional neurons in living mammals.
Researchers use electrical pulses delivered from cochlear implants to deliver gene therapy and regrow auditory neurons.
VEGF-B can regenerate damaged peripheral nerves without causing new blood vessels to grow, a new study reports.
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 have discovered a way to stimulate the growth of corticospinal axons. The finding could potentially help with the development of new treatments for those suffering from spinal cord injuries.
A new study reveals how Schwann cells in the PNS degrade myelin following nerve injury.
Researchers have identified how neural stem cells remain relatively free of age related damage.
Researchers have developed a 3D printed guide that helps regrow neurons and restore both sensory and motor function following complex nerve injury.
Researchers have identified a master gene, HIF-1alpha, is involved in orchestrating the regrowth of damaged peripheral nerves.
Researchers have identified key components of a mechanism that allows the nervous system to heal itself.
