Macrophage/microglia polarization acts as an important part in regulating inflammatory
responses in spinal cord injury (SCI). However, the regulation of inflammation of Schwann …

Neurogenic bladder dysfunction is a condition that affects both bladder storage and voiding
function and remains one of the leading causes of morbidity after spinal cord injury (SCI) …

Neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) is a severe lower urinary tract disorder,
characterized by urinary urgency, retention, and incontinence, as a result of a neurologic …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) patients sustain significant functional impairments; this is causally
related to restricted neuronal regeneration after injury. The ensuing reactive gliosis …

Based on our previous demonstration of CXCR7 as the major mediator of CXCL12 signaling
in cultured astrocytes, we have now compared astrocytic expression of the CXCL12 …

Neurogenic bladder (NGB) is an important complication of urinary tract dysfunction after

SCI is followed by dramatic upregulation of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs)
which limit axonal regeneration, oligodendrocyte replacement and remyelination. The recent …
