Dynamic Regulation of the Adenosine Kinase Gene during Early Postnatal Brain Development and Maturation.

abstract：:Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes the death of neurons and glial cells due to the initial mechanical forces (i.e., primary injury) and through a cascade of secondary molecular events (e.g., inflammation or excitotoxicity) that exacerbate cell death. The loss of neurons and glial cells that are not replaced after the inj...
