Lithium promotes long-term neurological recovery after spinal cord injury in mice by enhancing neuronal survival, gray and white matter remodeling, and long-distance axonal regeneration
Balçıkanlı, Zeynep; Çulha, İrem; Dilsiz, Pelin; Aydın, Mehmet Şerif; Ateş, Nilay; Beker, Mustafa Çağlar; Baltacı, Saltuk Buğra; Koç, Halil İbrahim; Yiğitbaşı, Ahmet; Gündoğar, Mustafa; Doeppner, Thorsten Roland; Hermann, Dirk M. (Frontiers Media S.A., 2022)Spinal cord injury (SCI) induces neurological deficits associated with long-term functional impairments. Since the current treatments remain ineffective, novel therapeutic options are needed. Besides its effect on bipolar ... -
