Stroke and spinal cord injuries can severely impair motor functions, and understanding how to promote recovery is a critical challenge. While damaged neurons in the brain and spinal cord have limited ...

Our movements are controlled by multiple neural pathways that connect the brain and spinal cord. In particular, neurons in the cerebral cortex send commands to the motor neurons in the spinal cord and ...

The spinal cord is the body’s main communication highway, carrying messages between the brain and the rest of the body. Understanding its anatomy—from protective layers to nerve pathways—can help ...

The selective MAOB inhibitor KDS2010 significantly improved functional recovery in a spinal cord injury animal model. Treated animals showed marked restoration of behavioral scores and locomotor ...

Electroacupuncture Promotes Neural Repair by Inhibiting Calcium-Driven ER Stress After Spinal Cord Injury. Schematic illustration of the proposed mechanism by which electroacupuncture at the Shenshu ...

A tethered spinal cord cannot move freely in the spinal canal because it is attached to tissues around the spine. The condition is often seen in infants, leading to pain and nerve damage that worsen ...
