Researchers report on a promising new way to induce hMSCs to differentiate into neuron-like cells by treating them with exosomes. Read More
Researchers at Boston Children's Hospital have developed a therapeutic cocktail of molecules that restored fine motor skills in mice with spinal cord injuries. When applied to mice who had experienced stroke symptoms, researchers observed increased axon sprouting in subcortical areas. Read More
V2a interneurons could potentially repair spinal cord injuries, researchers report. Read More
Researchers have discovered a new mechanism which helps to control brain development. Read More
A new study suggests certain probiotics could help aid patients' recovery from spinal cord injury. Read More
Researchers have identified an underlying cause of immune suppression in people with high level spinal cord injuries. Read More
People with spinal cord injuries have the same brain activity during processing speed tasks as healthy older adults. The findings suggest the theory of accelerated cognitive aging following SCI is correct. Read More
Severed axonal segments signal to Schwann cells to begin actin sphere formation and axon disintegration. If the process is disrupted, axon disintegration is slowed and axon fragments impair nerve regeneration. Read More
Findings could lead to exciting new treatments for spinal cord injury and stroke patients, researchers report. Read More
Researchers say a novel enzyme treatment may reduce inflammation and scarring that prevents neural regeneration in spinal cord injury. Read More
Using a brain computer interface, researchers help a paralyzed man regain a sensation of touch via a robotic arm. Read More
Researchers have developed a brain machine interface that incorporates virtual reality which has allowed some paraplegic patients to regain some feeling in their limbs. Read More
