Bridging spinal cord injuries [PDF]
Journal of Biology, 2008 One strategy for spinal cord injury repair is to make cellular bridges that support axon regeneration. However, the bridging cells often fail to integrate with host tissue and may lead to increased pain sensitivity. Recent work has tested bridging with two forms of progenitor-derived astrocyte.

AMPA Receptor Phosphorylation and Synaptic Colocalization on Motor Neurons Drive Maladaptive Plasticity below Complete Spinal Cord Injury. [PDF]
, 2015 Clinical spinal cord injury (SCI) is accompanied by comorbid peripheral injury in 47% of patients. Human and animal modeling data have shown that painful peripheral injuries undermine long-term recovery of locomotion through unknown mechanisms ...

Microenvironment Imbalance of Spinal Cord Injury
Cell Transplantation, 2018 Spinal cord injury (SCI), for which there currently is no cure, is a heavy burden on patient physiology and psychology. The microenvironment of the injured spinal cord is complicated.

Origins of Neural Progenitor Cell-Derived Axons Projecting Caudally after Spinal Cord Injury. [PDF]
, 2019 Neural progenitor cells (NPCs) transplanted into sites of spinal cord injury (SCI) extend large numbers of axons into the caudal host spinal cord. We determined the precise locations of neurons in the graft that extend axons into the caudal host spinal ...

High‐Resolution Patterned Delivery of Chemical Signals From 3D‐Printed Picoliter Droplet Networks
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.3D‐printed picoliter droplet networks have been fabricated that control gene expression in bacterial populations by releasing chemical signals with precise spatial definition and high temporal resolution. This system of effector release is widely applicable, offering diverse applications in biology and medicine.

Design, control and evaluation of a low-cost active orthosis for the gait of spinal cord injured subjects [PDF]
, 2016 Robotic gait training after spinal cord injury is of high priority to maximize independence and improve the living conditions of the patients. Current rehabilitation robots are expensive and heavy, and are generally found only in the clinical environment.
