Research Abstract |
Central nervous system (CNS) injury causes severe neurological deficits. Recovery from this symptom needs to repair of neural tissue; however, the mechanism of tissue repair is not fully elucidated. We previously revealed that neovessels formed though CNS inflammation promotes axonal rewiring. In this project, we hypothesized that vascular function is involved in tissue repair after CNS injury, and investigated the expression pattern of the protein that is related with vascular function in the CNS.
