The Journal of Neuroscience, 1984 • February 1, 1984
The study investigates the effect of Carbocaine on nerve sprouting and synapse formation in frog muscles. Carbocaine induces muscle fiber degeneration and subsequent regeneration, affecting nerve inne...
KEY FINDING: Carbocaine application leads to degeneration and regeneration of muscle fibers.
Nature Communications, 2017 • January 10, 2017
The study elucidates how developing zebrafish spinal cord neurons coordinate vessel growth by balancing neuron-derived Vegfaa and sFlt1, which restricts angiogenesis at the neurovascular interface. Lo...
KEY FINDING: Neuronal sFlt1 restricts angiogenesis around the spinal cord by limiting Vegfaa availability.
Neurosci. Bull., 2023 • February 1, 2023
This study uses spatial transcriptomics to analyze gene expression patterns during glial scar formation after spinal cord injury in mice. It identifies key cell types, their spatial distribution, and ...
KEY FINDING: The study identified key regulators in specific cell types, such as Thbs1 and Col1a2 in macrophages.
