can central nervous system damage be repaired
Damaged nerves could be reprogrammed and even regenerated with chemical and genetic treatments, a pair of new discoveries suggest. These findings suggest future therapies could help repair nerve damage after people suffer spinal cord injury or brain trauma, researchers said.Damage to the central nervous system â the brain and spinal cord â is currently irreparable.This often leaves those who suffer from spinal cord injury, stroke or brain trauma with serious impairments such as paralysis and loss of sensation.amaged nerves could be reprogrammed and even regenerated with chemical and genetic treatments, a pair of new discoveries suggest.
