Relaxin‐2 Ameliorates Spinal Cord Injury by Inhibiting Microglia Activation

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aims to assess the therapeutic effectiveness of Relaxin‐2 (RLN‐2) in promoting functional recovery and neuroprotection following spinal cord injury (SCI) in mice. Furthermore, continuous subcutaneous infusion of Serelaxin (0.5 mg/kg/day; human recombinant relaxin‐2) improved neurological recovery, as evidenced by higher Basso ...
