A contraceptive drug helps human nerve cells regenerate by unlocking their forgotten embryonic healing abilities.

Cambridge scientists have grown miniature circuits in the lab that mimic how the brain and spinal cord connect up, which underlies our movements. They used this model to show how damage to these ...

Summary: A milestone neuro-regenerative study has shattered a long-standing medical dogma by proving that “irreversible” damage to the connections between the human brain and spinal cord can be ...

After a spinal cord injury, nearby cells quickly rush to action, forming protective scar tissue around the damaged area to stabilize and protect it. But over time, too much scarring can prevent nerves ...

Previous research separately linked a viral protein called glycoprotein 120 (gp120) to increased pain sensitivity and ...
