Immune modulatory therapies for spinal cord injury--past, present and future.

abstract：:The regional cerebral blood flow of 27 young (mean age 24 years) schizophrenic patients was measured using the intravenous 133Xe method. The results were compared with those obtained from a group of age- and sex-matched control subjects. The main findings of the study were as follows: (a) the gray matter mean values o...

abstract：:Discovery of new central nervous system (CNS) acting therapeutics has been slowed down by the lack of useful applicable biomarkers of disease or drug action often due to inaccessibility of relevant human CNS tissue and cell types. In recent years, non-neuronal cells, such as astrocytes, have been reported to play a hi...
