This project focuses on understanding the role of type A pericytes in the formation of scar tissue after central nervous system injuries. By investigating their signaling mechanisms and contributions to connective tissue, the research aims to identify new therapeutic targets for improving recovery after such injuries.
Damage to the central nervous system (CNS) often leads to persistent functional deficits, causinggreat individual suffering and enormous cost to society.
The manifestation of these deficits isbelieved to be associated with the scar tissue that forms locally at lesions, causing permanent tissuealteration and blocking regeneration.Research on CNS scar tissue has primarily focused on astrocytes and it is often referred to as theglial scar.
However, although it has received much less attention, ther…
