THE EXPRESSION AND FUNCTION OF PHOSPHACAN/RPTPβ IN ADAPTIVE SYNAPTOGENESIS AFTER TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY

THE EXPRESSION AND FUNCTION OF PHOSPHACAN/RPTPβ IN ADAPTIVE SYNAPTOGENESIS AFTER TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) affects 1.5 million Americans annually and is a major health concern. Increasing evidence suggests that the brain extracellular environment regulates plasticity and synaptic recovery following TBI. Here we have focused on phosphacan/RPTPβ, an alternatively spliced group...
