Localizan "freno” al crecimiento axonal después de daño a nervios periféricos y en el sistema nervioso central. Se puede inhibir con fármacos o borrar con terapia génica.
Abren la puerta a tratamientos potenciales para lesiones de médula, cerebrales y de nervio periférico.
What an exciting time to be alive!!

The Spinal Cord Could Provide a Radical New Way To Treat Depression
(magicmine/Getty Images) With depression affecting around 1 in 10 of us at some point during our lives, the need for new and improved treatments is a top priority for researchers – and it appears that spinal cord stimulation could be one route for experts to investigate. A team led by researchers at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine devised a pilot clinical trial in which a little black box was placed on the spinal cord of 20 volunteers with depression, with one […] -
Otro pequeño orgullo de nuestro laboratorio del #iibce ya está en @biorxiv_neursci .

Features That May Make Motor Neurons Vulnerable to ALS
Motor neurons are distinguished by a set of genes that may enable the large size of the motor neuron cell body and lengthy axon, but also underlie their vulnerability to degeneration. Their molecular profile was defined by genes involved in cytoskeletal structure, which gives the cell shape and organizes the structures within; neurofilament genes related to cell size; and genes linked to the onset of ALS.
