Targeting Smoothened as a New Frontier in the Functional Recovery of Central Nervous System Demyelinating Pathologies
Myelin sheaths on vertebrate axons provide protection, vital support and increase the speed of neuronal signals. Myelin degeneration can be caused by viral, autoimmune or genetic diseases. Remyelination is a natural process that restores the myelin sheath and, consequently, neuronal function after a...
