To investigate how nano-primed reprogrammed neurons can influence glial scar formation and axonal regeneration following spinal cord injury.
Utilized nano-primed reprogrammed neurons in an experimental model of spinal cord injury.
Assessed glial scar formation and axonal regeneration post-treatment.
Performed chemical reprogramming to create neuron-like cells.
Demonstrated a significant reduction in glial scar formation.
Facilitated axonal regeneration after spinal cord injury was observed.
Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) often results in permanent sensory-motor deficits due to the formation of an inhibitory glial scar and the massive loss of neurons. Chemical reprogramming into induced neuron-like...
