Until recently, scientists believed that the central nervous system
(CNS) could not be regenerated. In the 1980s and 1990s, it has
become increasingly clear that the adult brain and spinal cord are
responsive to signals provided by several classes of molecules.
This capacity for regeneration is rarely expressed in the central
nervous system in the absence of specific intervention, but can be
readily elicited by experimental manipulation. The culmination of
these interventions is functional recovery, a phenomenon that has
now been demonstrated in animal models of nervous system trauma,
stroke, degeneration, and inherited degenerative disease. Based
upon preclinical studies, several of these approaches are now
undergoing clinical testing. Science has entered a new era in the
treatment of disease of the nervous system.;This work focuses on
some of the leading current neurological disease models and methods
for promoting central nervous system regeneration. In a
comprehensive, logical manner, the book unites important basic
science advances in neuroscience with novel medical strategies.
