Capitalizing on the flexibility of tiny cells inside the body's smallest blood vessels may be a powerful spinal cord repair strategy, new research suggests. In mouse experiments, scientists introduced ...

Researchers have built a realistic human mini spinal cord in the lab and used it to simulate traumatic injury. The model reproduced key damage seen in real spinal cord injuries, including inflammation ...

A paradigm shift in the way we treat spinal injuries is now in sight, with the world's first regenerative cell therapy being granted approval for a registrational Phase I clinical trial. It's a ...

A stem cell treatment helped improve the motor function of two out of four patients with a spinal cord injury in the first clinical study of its kind, Japanese scientists said. There is currently no ...

People with spinal cord injuries are getting a new lease on life thanks to a tiny neck implant paired with physical therapy. In a study published last month in the journal Nature, researchers at the ...

There is a new hope for people with spinal cord injuries. Doctors are using an experimental, easy to deliver drug, with surprising results. A Chicago are a patient who got the drug says it’s nothing ...
