Chondroitinase ABC (Ch’ase) a potential future deal maker for Spinal Cord Injuries
Inhibition by scar tissue Following injury, specialised glial cells that normally support neurons accumulate at the injury site and deposit scar tissue. Scar tissue is a major obstacle to spinal cord repair because it creates a physical and biochemical blockage … Continue reading
