Alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone promotes regrowth of injured axons in the adult rat spinal cord.

abstract：:After a severe, high-level spinal cord injury (SCI), plasticity to intraspinal circuits below injury results in heightened spinal sympathetic reflex activity and detrimentally impacts peripheral organ systems. Such sympathetic hyperreflexia is immediately apparent as an episode of autonomic dysreflexia (AD), a life-th...
