Abstract:
Traditionally,spinal cord injuries are conceived unrepairable because the injured neurons can not regenerate.However,recent studies proved that axons of the central nerves system could regenerate under some specified conditions.Inspiring results had been obtained in several milestone researches at organ,cell and molecule levels.Currently a consensus has been reached in the neurology circle that spinal cord injuries are repairable,but the past studies had shortcomings such as defective experiment designing and unsatisfactory repeatability.This article reviews the advance in the repair methods of spinal cord injury,providing reference for future studies.
