Gene Delivery Strategies to Promote Spinal Cord Repair
Gene therapies hold great promise for the treatment of many neurodegenerative disorders and traumatic injuries in the central nervous system. However, development of effective methods to deliver such therapies in a controlled manner to the spinal cord is a necessity for their translation to the clinic. Although essential progress has been made to improve efficiency of transgene delivery and red...
متن کاملBioengineered strategies for spinal cord repair.
This article reviews bioengineered strategies for spinal cord repair using tissue engineered scaffolds and drug delivery systems. The pathophysiology of spinal cord injury (SCI) is multifactorial and multiphasic, and therefore, it is likely that effective treatments will require combinations of strategies such as neuroprotection to counteract secondary injury, provision of scaffolds to replace ...
متن کاملMagnetic/pH-sensitive nanocomposite hydrogel based carboxymethyl cellulose –g- polyacrylamide/montmorillonite for colon targeted drug delivery
Objective(s): The main aim of current research was to develop a novel magnetically responsive hydrogel by radical polymerization of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) on acryl amide (Am) using N,N'-methylene bis acrylamide (MBA) as a crosslinking agent, potassium persulfate (KPS) as a free radical initiator, and magnetic montmorillonite ( mMT) nanoclay as nano-...
متن کاملRepair and neurorehabilitation strategies for spinal cord injury.
The failure of axons in the central nervous system (CNS) to regenerate has been considered the main factor limiting recovery from spinal cord injury (SCI). Impressive gains in identification of growth-inhibitory molecules in the CNS led to expectations that their neutralization would lead to functional regeneration. However, results of therapeutic approaches based on this assumption have been m...
متن کاملBiomaterials for Local, Controlled Drug Delivery to the Injured Spinal Cord
Affecting approximately 17,000 new people each year, spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating injury that leads to permanent paraplegia or tetraplegia. Current pharmacological approaches are limited in their ability to ameliorate this injury pathophysiology, as many are not delivered locally, for a sustained duration, or at the correct injury time point. With this review, we aim to communicate...
