-
The second is to repair the damage that has occurred to the protective myelin sheaths surrounding the nerve fibres (this involves a regenerative process called remyelination in which new myelin sheaths are restored to nerve fibres).
-
It is known that a repair process, called remyelination, takes place in early phases of the disease, but the myelin sheath cannot completely rebuild a destroyed myelin sheath.

-
The new cells helped restore electrical pathways of the spinal cord and therefore, function, in a process called remyelination.
-
Nature Medicine and Nature Neuroscience our scientists found that treatment with anti-LINGO-1 antibody promoted the remyelination of damaged nerve fibers when tested in various animal models of demyelination.

-
In this research, results showed that there was significantly enhanced behavioural recovery, return of electrophysiological conduction and ultra-structural evidence of remyelination.
-
Previous studies by the team and other researchers have shown that grafted OPCs survive after grafting into an injured spinal cord and increase movement recovery, but the mechanical connection to remyelination had only been theorized.
