Researchers created a 3D biomaterial implant that delivers RNA to injured spinal cord neurons. The approach silences PTEN, removes internal repair barriers, and significantly boosts neuron regrowth in ...

Researchers develop a 3D-printed, RNA-activated implant that silences the PTEN gene to promote nerve regrowth after spinal ...

The top nerve was not treated with any regenerative factors, and there is no regrowth of the nerve (shown by the uniformly dark area on the right.) The bottom nerve, co-treated with the fibronectin ...

Once dismissed as “junk,” a group of RNA molecules has been found to help regrow damaged nerves in mice in new research. The discovery could unlock new ways to treat nerve injuries and even restore ...

A team from Yale University School of Medicine has identified a mechanism for blocking an inhibitory protein that prevents the regrowth of damaged nerves, generating hopes that their research could ...

Researchers at the University of Leipzig Medical Center report that Schwann cells receive crucial support with nerve repair from the fat tissue that surrounds nerves in the body. Using genetically ...

Nature has again proven effective in treating health conditions, this time nerve injury. According to a new study, a compound found in the blessed thistle plant accelerates the regeneration of damaged ...

How spider silk could be key to repairing damaged nerves in humans - Clinical trials are to go ahead using ‘off-the-shelf’ ...

Researchers at Stanford University School of Medicine and Sanford Burnham Prebys have discovered that targeting an enzyme associated with aging after nerve injury in a mouse model with a small ...

R&D Digest: The monthly review of new technologies and medical device innovations. Rutledge Ellis-Behnke, left, and Gerald Schneider created a technique that has helped rodents recover sight after ...

Researchers from RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences have developed a novel implant that delivers tiny growth-promoting particles directly to injured nerve cells, helping them to regrow ...
