Research Abstract |
Brain injury that results in an initial behavioral deficit is frequently followed by spontaneous functional recovery. In the present study, we showed that reorganization of the remnant neural network was crucial for spontaneous recovery of motor function following brain injury in mice. Furthermore, we identified several key signals (BDNF-TrkB, GABA, EphA4-EphrinB3, MAG/Nogo/OMgp-PirB) that modify this new network formation.
