This project investigates the role of a specific gene in the regenerative response of glial cells in fruit flies. It aims to understand how these cells can promote repair in the central nervous system, potentially informing treatments for human injuries.
Regeneration after injury occurs in many animals, revealing that cellular and molecular mechanisms regulate normal organ structure, size and shape.
The human central nervous system (CNS) does not regenerate upon damage and as a consequence stroke, spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis and neurodegenerative diseases result in permanent disability. NG2 cells are repair cells in mammals that respond to CNS injury by proliferating to produce ensheathing glia and trophic factors that favor axonal gr…
