The brain's mechanisms for repairing injuries caused by trauma or degenerative diseases are not yet known in detail. Now, a ...

Conventional studies on stem cell fates are primarily focused on transcription factors, with the limited consideration for 3D ...

Scientists have identified an unusual type of brain cell that may play a vital role in progressive multiple sclerosis (MS), ...

A study led by Cambridge researchers has shed light on how neural stem cell grafts could help restore myelin in the central nervous system. The findings suggest that neural stem cell-based therapies ...

Researchers have synthesized enhanced vitamin K analogues that outperform natural vitamin K in promoting neuron growth. The ...

Researchers who induced strokes in mice and then transplanted human neural stem cells into their brains found that neurons and blood vessels were regenerated.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes structural damage to neural circuits, which in turn leads to sensory and motor dysfunction. Transplantation of neural precursor cells/stem cells provides a potential ...

Researchers have identified a rare type of brain cell that may drive the chronic inflammation and neurodegeneration seen in progressive multiple sclerosis (MS).

For much of the 20th century it was thought that the adult brain was incapable of regeneration. This view has since shifted dramatically and neurogenesis – the birth of new neurons – is now a widely ...
