What is the anatomy of the spinal cord? The human spinal cord is a cylindrical structure of nerve tissue that is protected by the spinal column and composed of uniformly organized white and grey ...

The spinal cord is a cylindrical structure of nervous tissue that serves as the main communication conduit between the brain and the rest of the body. It extends from the base of the brain, through ...

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

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 ...

A pinched nerve in the spinal region is a common yet often misunderstood condition that affects a significant portion of the population at some point in their lives. This condition not only causes ...

A recent review published in Engineering explores the construction and potential applications of spinal cord and peripheral nerve organoids for regenerative medicine in neurotrauma. The article, ...

Researchers have built a realistic human mini spinal cord in the lab and used it to simulate traumatic injury. The model reproduced key damage seen in real spinal cord injuries, including inflammation ...

Researchers reveal that hormone treatment reduces abnormal nerve invasion and improves chronic back pain CHINA, ...

The 3D implant copies the structure of the spinal cord and, combined with growth-promoting particles, stimulates nerve cells to regrow.

Can "dancing molecules" repair spinal cord injuries? A new lab model using human organoids shows promising results, reducing scars and regrowing nerve fibers.
