Explosions can damage brain cells and blood vessels even when scans look normal, leaving lasting symptoms that are often missed.

Scientists at Cedars-Sinai have uncovered a surprising repair system in the spinal cord that could open new doors for treating paralysis, stroke, and diseases like multiple sclerosis. They found that ...

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 ...

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

Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have uncovered how chronic inflammation disrupts the immune ...

Spinal cord injury remains one of the most challenging neurological conditions to treat, largely because damage continues to worsen long after the initial trauma. Secondary injury processes—driven by ...

Oxidative stress is a direct consequence of an excess in the body of so-called free radicals—reactive, unstable molecules ...

Evanston, Ill.-based Northwestern University scientists have created the most advanced human spinal cord injury organoid model to date, enabling researchers to test regenerative therapies in lab-grown ...
