Regeneration strategies in the central nervous system: drug-loaded nanoparticles for spinal cord injury regeneration

Unlike fish, amphibia and even mammalial peripheral nerves, human central nervous system (CNS) axons have a very limited regeneration capability and do not spontaneously re-grow if lesioned. After damage or disruption, for instance caused by brain/ spinal cord injury (SCI) or stroke, a cascade of ce...
