Nerve healing

Overexpression of B2-SINE family genes in retinal ganglion cells (top) led to accelerated growth after injury. Below: Ganglion cells after injury without overexpression of B2-SINE

Weizmann scientists discovered hundreds of molecules that accelerate nerve regeneration – including in the brain

The study, published in the journal Cell, reveals a new role for rare RNA molecules that help peripheral nerves and even encourage the regrowth of nerve cells in the brain. A breakthrough in the treatment of degenerative diseases and rehabilitation from injuries
