Mechanism of SET8 Activates the Nrf2-KEAP1-ARE Signaling Pathway to Promote the Recovery of Motor Function after Spinal Cord Injury by Xin Li, Yan Qian, Wanling Shen, Shiying Zhang, Hui Han, Yu Zhang, Shuangmei Liu, Shaokun Lv, Xiuying Zhang

“…It was confirmed that the oxidative stress of mitochondria leads to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells, which plays a key role in the motor function of astrocytes. However, the mechanism by which oxidative stress affects astrocyte motility after SCI is still unexplained. …”

Endogenous Proliferation after Spinal Cord Injury in Animal Models by Ashley McDonough, Verónica Martínez-Cerdeño

“…Finally, the fate of newly generated cells varies from a mainly oligodendrocyte fate in contusion and compression to a mostly astrocyte fate in the transection model. Here we will discuss the potential of endogenous stem/progenitor cell manipulation as a therapeutic tool to treat SCI.…”
