Gene Therapy for Spinal Cord Injury

This technology is a virus-based gene therapy for the treatment of spinal cord injury (SCI). The treatment dramatically improves locomotor behavior in a mouse model of SCI by promoting the generation of new neurons for the re-establishment of damaged neural circuits and reducing the glial scar formation at the lesion site.
