A spinal cord injury can steal movement, feeling and independence in a single moment. When damage happens in the neck, it can also disrupt breathing, one of the body’s most basic and urgent tasks. New ...

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have developed a novel immunotherapy that could significantly improve recovery from spinal cord injuries. The study, published in ...

Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes structural damage to neural circuits, which in turn leads to sensory and motor dysfunction. Transplantation of neural precursor cells/stem cells provides a potential ...

Replacing damaged spinal cord with healthy donor tissue sounds like a straightforward solution to paralysis. Getting those ...

Under the microscope, mitochondria inside healthy terminal Schwann cells form a web of interconnected branches, with tiny ...

The big picture: Nearly two decades ago, Shinya Yamanaka and Kazutoshi Takahashi discovered they could turn mature somatic cells back into stem cells. The scientists predicted these new cells could be ...

A surgeon has told New Scientist they have performed a transplant on someone with a complete spinal cord injury using a piece ...
