The central nervous system (CNS) has a limited capacity to spontaneously regenerate
following traumatic injury or disease, requiring innovative strategies to promote tissue and …

Biomaterials are likely to have an increasingly important role in the treatment of nervous
system disorders. Recently developed biomaterials can enable and augment the targeted …

Nerve injuries can be life-long debilitating traumas that severely impact patients' quality of
life. While many acellular neural scaffolds have been developed to aid the process of nerve …

Traumatic injury to the central nervous system (CNS) is highly debilitating, with the clinical
need for regenerative therapies apparent. Neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) are …

The central nervous system (CNS) is the most important section of the nervous system as it
regulates the function of various organs. Injury to the CNS causes impairment of …

Neural stem/progenitor cells capable of generating new neurons and glia, reside in specific
areas of the adult mammalian central nervous system (CNS), including the ependymal …

Following injury to the central nervous system (CNS) there is a cascade of events that leads
to cell death, tissue loss and consequently functional deficit. In response to injury, the CNS …

Tissue engineering frequently involves cells and scaffolds to replace damaged or diseased
tissue. It originated, in part, as a means of effecting the delivery of biomolecules such as …

Neurological disorders such as traumatic brain injuries or stroke result in neuronal loss and
disruption of the brain parenchyma. Current treatment strategies are limited in that they can …
