A protein found in human hair shows promise for promoting the regeneration of nerve tissue and could lead to a new treatment option when nerves are cut or crushed from trauma.

In recent years, many research advancements and understanding of the process involved in peripheral nerve regeneration allowed for the development of novel therapies that significantly improve ...

Discover foods that support nerve regeneration and repair damaged ... specialized peptides alongside omega-3s that appear to protect nerve cells from oxidative damage during the repair process.

Researchers have discovered a molecular process that controls the rate at which nerves grow both during embryonic development and recovery from injury throughout life.

At the Institute of Polymer Science and Engineering in Taipei, Taiwan, researchers led by Dr. Hsu have been involved in peripheral nerve regeneration research for more than ten years.

A gene that is associated with regeneration of injured nerve cells has been identified by scientists at Penn State University and Duke University. The team, led by Melissa Rolls, an assistant ...

Discovery of HDAC8's role in Schwann cell repair offers new insights into nerve regeneration. ... has recently discovered a mechanism that slows down the peripheral nervous system recovery process.

In addition, nerve regeneration with this method is not always successful. For ... "We believe that keratin helps amp up Schwann cell activity and give the nerve regeneration process a head start." ...
