Scientists at Northwestern University have built what they call the most advanced human spinal ...

Complex 3D structures of cells called organoids could be used to test treatments for spinal-cord damage that can lead to ...

A new human spinal cord organoid model replicates key injury responses, such as inflammation, cell loss, and scar formation.

Organoids modeled on the structure of the human spinal cord have been shown to match the behavior of an injured spine. Now, a treatment that has worked well in mice has been applied to the organoids, ...

Neurites include axons, which are often severed during spinal cord injuries. When axons are cut, communication between ...

Researchers have built a realistic human mini spinal cord in the lab and used it to simulate traumatic injury. The model reproduced key damage seen in real spinal cord injuries, including inflammation ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Prof. Tal Dvir says the first recipient of the new technology will be Israeli. (CREDIT: Matricelf) For generations, paralysis from ...

A new breakthrough for spine and nervous system formation was successfully achieved by researchers where they were able to develop human stem cell models that will soon help in addressing the problems ...

For generations, paralysis from a damaged spinal cord has been seen as permanent. Once the nerves were injured, the signals carrying movement from the brain to the body were lost forever. But ...
