It is now accepted that neurons contain and release multiple transmitter substances.
However, we still have only limited insight into the regulation and functional effects of this co …

Evidence from preclinical and clinical research suggest that neuromodulation technologies
can facilitate the sublesional spinal networks, isolated from supraspinal commands after …

The poor regenerative capacity of descending neurons is one of the main causes of the lack
of recovery after spinal cord injury (SCI). Thus, it is of crucial importance to find ways to …

Finding a treatment for spinal cord injury (SCI) focuses on reconnecting the spinal cord by
promoting regeneration across the lesion site. However, while regeneration is necessary for …

Classical neurotransmitters are mainly known for their roles as neuromodulators, but they
also play important roles in the control of developmental and regenerative processes. Here …

Employing history of science methods, including analyses of the scientific literature, archival
documents, and interviews with scientists, this paper presents a history of lampreys in …

Lampreys recover locomotion following a spinal cord injury (SCI). Glutamate is necessary to
initiate and control locomotion and recent data suggest a crucial role for intraspinal neurons …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition that leads to permanent disability because
injured axons do not regenerate across the trauma zone to reconnect to their targets. A …

While the anatomical properties of regenerated axons across spinal cord lesion sites have
been studied extensively, little is known of how the functional properties of regenerated …

Lampreys recover locomotion spontaneously several weeks after a complete spinal cord
injury. Dysfunction of the GABAergic system following SCI has been reported in mammalian …
