Introduction Following spinal cord injury (SCI), a highly inhibitory environment for axonal regeneration develops. One of the main sources of this inhibition is the glial scar which is formed after injury by reactive astrocytes. The inhibitory environment is mainly due to chondroitin sulphate proteoglycans (CSPGs). NG2, is one of the main inhibitory CSPGs. Studies have shown that NG2 is unregul...
In previous studies, hyperporous synthetic hydrogels of poly(glyceryl methacrylate) or p(GMA), containing bioadhesive substrates of collagen, were implanted into rat cerebral tissue in order to provide systems of oriented guidance channels for directing the growth of the scar and axons /28/. In the present study, ionic p(GMA)-collagen hydrogels containing polar chemical groups, either basic ami...
After spinal cord injury (SCI), astrocytes become hypertrophic, and proliferative, forming a dense network of astroglial processes at the site of the lesion. This constitutes a physical and biochemical barrier to axonal regeneration. Mitochondrial fission regulates cell cycle progression; inhibiting the cell cycle of astrocytes can reduce expression levels of axon growth-inhibitory molecules as...
In this study we investigated whether CNS axons regenerate following attenuation of scar formation using a combination of antibodies against two isoforms of transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta). Anaesthetized adult rats were given unilateral mechanical lesions of the nigrostriatal tract. Implantation of transcranial cannulae allowed wounds to be treated with a combination of antibodies aga...
Signaling mechanisms that regulate astrocyte reactivity and scar formation after spinal cord injury (SCI) are not well defined. We used the Cre recombinase (Cre)-loxP system under regulation of the mouse glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) promoter to conditionally delete the cytokine and growth factor signal transducer, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), from astroc...
Stroke and other brain injuries trigger an extensive glial cell response referred to as reactive gliosis. Reactive gliosis is characterized by hypertrophic and proliferating astrocytes, proliferating microglia and NG2-positive cells, which eventually form a bordering glial scar around the damaged area. Although reactive gliosis may protect the injured brain initially, the resulting glial scar i...
OBJECTIVE Spinal cord injury results in loss of neurons, degeneration of axons, formation of glial scar, and severe functional impairment. Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells can be induced to form neural cells in vitro. Thus, these cells have a potential therapeutic role for treating spinal cord injury. DESIGN AND SETTING Rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham operation g...
