Degeneration and regeneration of axons in the lesioned spinal cord

ME Schwab, D Bartholdi - Physiological reviews, 1996 - journals.physiology.org
For many decades, the inability of lesioned central neurons to regrow was accepted almost

Neurotrophic factors increase axonal growth after spinal cord injury and transplantation in the adult rat

BS Bregman, M McAtee, HN Dai, PL Kuhn - Experimental neurology, 1997 - Elsevier
The capacity of CNS neurons for axonal regrowth after injury decreases as the age of the

Transplants and neurotrophic factors prevent atrophy of mature CNS neurons after spinal cord injury

BS Bregman, E Broude, M McAtee, MS Kelley - Experimental neurology, 1998 - Elsevier
Axotomy of mature rubrospinal neurons leads to a substantial atrophy of these neurons
within days after surgery. In addition, these neurons do not successfully regenerate following …

c-Jun expression in adult rat dorsal root ganglion neurons: differential response after central or peripheral axotomy

E Broude, M McAtee, MS Kelley, BS Bregman - Experimental neurology, 1997 - Elsevier
The response of the mature central nervous system (CNS) to injury differs significantly from
the response of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Axotomized PNS neurons generally …

Expression of c‐Jun as a response to dorsal root and peripheral nerve section in damaged and adjacent intact primary sensory neurons in the rat

R Jenkins, SB McMahon, AB Bond… - European Journal of …, 1993 - Wiley Online Library

long periods, in both peripheral sensory and motor neurons following axon damage or block …

Differential expression of immediate early genes in rubrospinal neurons following axotomy in rat

R Jenkins, W Tetzlaff, SP Hunt - European Journal of …, 1993 - Wiley Online Library
Many immediate early genes are rapidly and transiently expressed in the central nervous
system following a variety of stimuli. Damage to the axons of peripheral and certain central …

Fetal spinal cord transplants and exogenous neurotrophic support enhance c-Jun expression in mature axotomized neurons after spinal cord injury

E Broude, M McAtee, MS Kelley, BS Bregman - Experimental neurology, 1999 - Elsevier
