Regenerative Activity In The Peripheral Nervous System Could Mean Regeneration For The Central Nervous System

ScienceDaily (May 22, 2008) — Researchers at the Peninsula Medical School in the South West of England, University College London, the San Raffaele Scientific Institute in Milan and Cancer Research UK, have for the first time identified a protein that is key to the regeneration of damage in the peripheral nervous system and which could with further research lead to understanding diseases of our peripheral nervous systems and provide clues to methods of repairing damage in the central nervous system, according to a paper recently published in the Journal of Cell Biology.
