    Inducing Neural Regeneration from Glia Using Proneural bHLH Transcription Factors

    Endogenous regeneration strategies to replace lost neurons hold great promise for treating neurodegenerative disorders. In the majority of cases, neural regeneration is induced by converting resident glial cel...

    Reactive microglia and IL1β/IL-1R1-signaling mediate neuroprotection in excitotoxin-damaged mouse retina

    Microglia and inflammation have context-specific impacts upon neuronal survival in different models of central nervous system (CNS) disease. Herein, we investigate how inflammatory mediators, including microgl...

    Jak/Stat signaling regulates the proliferation and neurogenic potential of Müller glia-derived progenitor cells in the avian retina

    Müller glia are capable of de-differentiating and proliferating to become Müller glia-derived progenitor cells (MGPCs) with the ability to regenerate retinal neurons. One of the cell-signaling pathways that dr...
