Abstract:The failure of endogenous repair mechanisms is a key characteristic of neurological diseases, leading to the inability to restore damaged nerves and resulting in functional impairments. Since the endogenously regenerative capacity of damaged nerves is limited, the enhancement of regenerative potential of quiescent neural stem cells (NSCs) presents as a therapeutic option for neural diseases. Our previous studies have shown exciting progress in treating sciatic nerve injury in mice and rats using NSCs in conjun… Show more
