Yale researchers identify multiple genes involved in suppression of axon regeneration – News-Medical.net
When central nervous system cells in the brain and spine are damaged by disease or injury, they fail to regenerate, limiting the body’s ability to recover.
When central nervous system cells in the brain and spine are damaged by disease or injury, they fail to regenerate, limiting the body’s ability to recover. In contrast, peripheral nerve cells that serve most other areas of the body are more able to regenerate. Scientists for decades have searched for molecular clues as to why axons — the threadlike projections which allow communication between central nervous system cells — cannot repair themselves after stroke, spinal cord damage, or traumatic…
