New way to enhance nerve growth following injury discovered
Date:
April 22, 2014 Source: University of Calgary Summary: A mechanism to promote growth in damaged nerve cells as a means to restore connections after injury has been uncovered by scientists who have discovered a key molecule that directly regulates nerve cell growth in the damaged nervous system. "We made the surprising discovery that a protein called Retinoblastoma (Rb) is present in adult neurons," explains the lead researcher. "This protein appears to normally act as a brake -- preventing nerve growth." Read On http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0422084932.htm A new hope N1 |
Thanks for sharing that!
I read another article about that recently on line. It is encouraging to see it here. Hopefully in my life some of these treatments will come my way in time.
