Researchers modified NG2 glial cells in the central nervous system into new neurons to promote recovery following spinal cord injury.
Hippocampal neurogenesis continues to occur well into old age, and in those with Alzheimer's disease. Researchers found evidence of neurogenesis in people up to the age of 99. While neurogenesis continues to occur in those with Alzheimer's disease, it is significantly reduced compared to those who have normal cognitive function.
Study sheds light on how macrophages use a specific cell signalling pathway to control peripheral nerve repair following damage.
A study in mice reveals it is possible to regenerate stem cells of the nasal tissue.
Study provides insight into why imbalance between Sox2 and Nup153 may contribute to neurodegenerative and mental illnesses.
Researchers discover a mechanism that may underpin the progression of glioblastoma brain cancer development.
Researchers have been able to successfully boost the regeneration of mature nerve cells in the spinal cord of adult mice following spinal cord injury.
A new study reports it is possible to regrow dopaminergic neurons in adult mammals.
Findings could provide a new therapeutic target for glioblastoma, a new study reports.
Discovery could pave the way to developing new treatments to target glioblastoma brain cancer.
Researchers reprogram astrocytes to become functional neurons in living mammals.
