Spinal cord regeneration

Article Abstract:

C. Cheng and L. Olson found that adult spinal cords can be regenerated. The researchers, who worked with cut spinal cords of rats, connected white matter and gray matter using peripheral nerves. This method would probably not work on crushed spinal cords, and behavioral recovery was restricted.

Regeneration and mammalian auditory hair cells

Article Abstract:

It has been reported that retinoic acid can stimulate the regeneration of hair cells on mammalian cochlea after injury by ototoxic poisoning, but the results were not replicated in subsequent experiments on rats. Verification would be important for the treatment deafness. A reply is included.

Mammalian vestibular hair cell regeneration

Article Abstract:

Claims of regeneration of vestibular hair cell apical surfaces in mammals after epithelial injury were not convincingly reproduced in experiments on guinea pigs, even though immature hair bundles did appear. Replies are included.
