Damage to the brain and spinal cord triggers cellular responses that can either support healing or worsen injury. Three studies examine how immune cells, support cells, and signaling pathways shape recovery in vascular dementia, ischemic stroke, and spinal cord...

Neurological conditions such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, stroke, and spinal cord injury can worsen when the nervous system’s cleanup, immune, and energy-regulating processes begin to fail. These studies explore different ways to restore those functions. In ALS...

Across several neurological conditions, important damage can begin before symptoms fully appear. In multiple sclerosis, PAD2-driven changes to myelin basic protein may weaken myelin and make it more visible to the immune system, helping explain early myelin...

The nervous system does not operate in isolation. Signals from the gut, blood vessels, immune cells, and support cells constantly shape brain and spinal cord health in ways researchers are only beginning to fully appreciate. This week’s studies highlight how...

These three studies look at neurodegeneration and brain injury from different angles, but they all point to the same larger question: what actually drives neurons and synapses to fail? In stroke-related ischemia and reperfusion injury, one study shows that silencing...

Across spinal cord injury, stroke-related brain damage, and Parkinson’s disease, researchers are looking for better ways to understand what is happening in the nervous system before, during, and after injury. One paper highlights the growing role of fluid-based...
