متن کاملFibroblast growth factors in the management of spinal cord injury
Spinal cord injury (SCI) possesses a significant health and economic burden worldwide. Traumatic SCI is a devastating condition that evolves through two successive stages. Throughout each of these stages, disturbances in ionic homeostasis, local oedema, ischaemia, focal haemorrhage, free radicals stress and inflammatory response were observed. Although there are no fully restorative cures avail...
متن کاملSpinal cord implantation with acidic fibroblast growth factor as a treatment for root avulsion in obstetric brachial plexus palsy.
Nerve root avulsion carries the worst prognosis among brachial plexus injuries and remains a great challenge for surgeons to repair. In this case, a boy with complete avulsion of the left-side C6 root presented with flaccid paralysis of the left arm after birth. As there was no significant spontaneous recovery, the patient underwent operation when he was 6 months old. One end of the nerve graft...
متن کاملCurrent trends in spinal cord injury repair.
One of the rapidly prevailing neurological disorders affecting thousands of people per year is spinal cord injury (SCI). Though, great research has been made in recent past to understand thoroughly the molecular bases of the diseases, no fully restorative treatments for SCI are available. However, various rehabilitative, cellular and molecular therapies are being tested in animal models. Some o...
متن کاملOverexpression of the Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 1 (FGFR1) in a Model of Spinal Cord Injury in Rats
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a severe condition that affects many people and results in high health care costs. Therefore, it is essential to find new targets for treatment. The fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) signalling pathway has a history of being explored for SCI treatment. Several groups have examined the effect of high availability of different FGFR1 ligands at the injury site...
