Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have discovered that the nervous system's own immune cells help protect the spinal cord from age-related damage.

Spinal cord injuries (SCIs) can temporarily or permanently disrupt critical functions, from sensation to breathing, contributing to substantial patient morbidities that are often lifelong. Researchers ...

Researchers particularly found a noticeable reduction in function recovery among people older than 70. Seniors with a spinal ...

The ratio between two signaling molecules may be a key marker of MS brain inflammation and help identify candidates for BTK ...

A model in mice that charts precisely how different cells respond to damage could aid the development of new treatments for spinal injuries. Researchers have developed a four-dimensional model of ...

Our Spinal Cord Injury Program specializes in caring for spinal cord injury patients immediately after the injury and during rehabilitation and recovery. We offer treatment options that are unique in ...

Aya Takeoka at the RIKEN Center for Brain Science (CBS) in Japan and colleagues have discovered the neural circuitry in the spinal cord that allows brain-independent motor learning. Published in ...

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is characterized by the temporary or permanent loss of motion or sensation function caused by damage to the spinal cord. Among the mechanisms behind SCI, neuroinflammation is ...
