Remarkably, even after nerves were severed, the drug treatment induced nerve regeneration and partial recovery of erectile function.

When a nerve fiber in the spinal cord is severed, its repair may require that something else be severed: actin. In mature neurons of the central nervous system, actin is stable; that is, actin ...

One of the main problems preventing optimal regeneration following peripheral nerve injuries is that axons within severed nerves have difficulty regenerating and reaching their target. This may be ...

SANTA CRUZ, CA--In a breakthrough for research on nerve regeneration, a team of scientists has reported using femtosecond laser pulses to precisely cut individual axons of nerves in the roundworm ...

All three photos show severed nerves from nematode worms. Axons -- the wiry part of nerve cells -- had stretched from top to bottom but were cut by a laser beam. In each case, the "stump" of the ...

A gene that is associated with regeneration of injured nerve cells has been identified by scientists led by Melissa Rolls at Penn State University. The team, which includes scientists at Penn ...

A recipe for regenerating nerve fibers across complete spinal cord injury Date: August 29, 2018 Source: Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne Summary: Scientists have designed a three-stepped ...

PNS nerve regeneration makes it possible for severed limbs to be surgically reattached to the body and continue to grow and regain function. Regeneration occurs because PNS cell bodies are sensitive ...
