Abstract
Researchers working on opposite coasts of the US have made important progress towards one of the ‘holy grails’ in medicine - the repair of nerve tissue following spinal injury. This week Inpharma takes a look at 2 recent studies that used different approaches and which indicate a potential for treating spinal cord injuries in humans. The first study investigates the experimental use of nerve growth factors in animal models, while in the second study transplantation of embryonic spinal cord cells was carried out in a paralysed man.
