A research team at RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences has developed a 3D printed implant to deliver electrical ...

Once dismissed as “junk,” a group of RNA molecules has been found to help regrow damaged nerves in mice in new research. The ...

NRXBF READ THE FULL NRXBF RESEARCH REPORT NurExone (OTC:NRXBF) is developing a product known as ExoPTEN that is designed to treat patients with acute spinal cord injuries, while also conducting ...

New research reveals that Alzheimer's disease may impair nerve function not by reducing myelin, but by altering the proteins ...

Chronic pain affects millions of people in the US. Targeting an oft-overlooked brain receptor could one day offer relief.

Speaking to the media on Thursday, Red Sox manager Alex Cora touched on series of injury updates, including a notable update for Bregman.

Certain spinal cord lesions in people with MS show damage to nerve fibers despite having preserved myelin content, a possible early MS marker.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2E (CMT2E) is a slow and progressive neuropathy characterized by axonal dysfunction. Its clinical phenotype includes muscle weakness and atrophy, sensory loss and ...

Axonal injuries are known to cause Wnd (mammalian DLK)-dependent retrograde signals to the cell body, culminating in a transcriptional response. This work identifies a fascinating new phenomenon that ...

Here we test the hypothesis that DLK/Wnd signaling is tuned to the synaptic connectivity of a neuron. A shared feature of nerve injuries and stressors that disrupt axonal cytoskeleton and transport is ...

When spinal cord damage occurs, chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) accumulate at the injury site, creating scar tissue that inhibits axonal regrowth and prevents natural nerve regeneration.

After injury, the long axonal projections of nerve cells are cut and 'die-back' from the injury site, and at the same time a lesion or gap forms at the wound site that prevents their regrowth ...
