The peripheral nervous system (PNS) exhibits a much larger capacity for regeneration than
the central nervous system (CNS). One reason for this difference is the difference in glial cell …

Successful nerve regeneration after nerve trauma is not only important for the restoration of
motor and sensory functions, but also to reduce the potential for abnormal sensory impulse …

The central nervous system (CNS) has very limited capacity to regenerate after traumatic
injury or disease. In contrast, the peripheral nervous system (PNS) has far greater capacity …

One of the main research strategies to improve treatment for spinal cord injury involves the
use of cell transplantation. This review looks at the advantages and possible caveats of …

Continuous renewal of neurons throughout life in the olfactory system is often thought to be
partially attributable to specialized glial cells called olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) …

Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) are unique glia found only in the olfactory system that
retain exceptional plasticity, and support olfactory neurogenesis and the re-targeting across …

Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) are unique glia cells restricted to the primary olfactory
system including the olfactory mucosa, olfactory nerve, and the outer nerve layer of the …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is generally the consequence of physical damage, which may result
in devastating consequences such as paraplegia or paralysis. Some certain candidates for …

Ensheathing cells are the glial cells that ensheath olfactory axons within both the PNS and
CNS portions of the primary olfactory pathway. These glial cells express a mixture of …

Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) have recently been shown to have a remarkable ability
to repair spinal cord injury. These cells were originally selected for transplant-mediated …
