The nuclear events guiding successful nerve regeneration
Peripheral nervous system (PNS) neurons survive and regenerate after nerve injury, whereas central nervous system (CNS) neurons lack the capacity to do so. The inability of the CNS to regenerate results from a lack of intrinsic growth activity and a permissive environment. To achieve CNS regeneratio...
