US researchers have found a promising drug candidate that could potentially help repair vision in people with multiple ...
A promising new treatment accelerates myelin repair, potentially restoring vision and improving brain function in people with multiple sclerosis and other neurological conditions.
“The paper shows very clearly that the ability to generate new myelin is necessary for adult mice to learn a complex motor task,” said the University of Michigan’s Gabriel Corfas, author of an ...
How does our nervous system operate so quickly and efficiently? The answer lies in a membranous structure called myelin. Aa Aa Aa All our activities — eating, walking, talking — are controlled ...
The brain tries to repair damage after a stroke by utilizing its own repair cells, which function like skilled craftsmen.
Researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus found a promising therapeutic candidate that could aid in the restoration of vision in those s ...
A new study sheds light on one of the most severe consequences of stroke: damage to the brain's 'cables'-- the so-called nerve fibers -- which leads to permanent impairments.
Myelin is an insulating layer of lipids and proteins surrounding nerves. Myelin damage can cause problems with the nerves’ ability to send and receive electrical messages. Inflammatory disorders ...
