Re-Expression of Thrombospondin-1 in the Thalamocortical Whisker Circuit after Experimental Diffuse Traumatic Brain Injury: Potential Role in Mediating Synaptogenesis?
Introduction: Annually, an estimated 2.5 million traumatic brain injuries (TBI) occur in the United States, of which, over 50,000 result in deaths. Currently, 5.3 million Americans are living with neurological dysfunction secondary to TBIs leading to a $60 billion dollar cost in medical expenses and...
