Novel carbon dots with dual Modulatory effects on the bone marrow and spleen as a potential therapeutic candidate for treating spinal cord injury by Junjin Li, Hongda Wang, Yuanquan Li, Chunzhen Wang, Haiwen Feng, Yilin Pang, Jie Ren, Chuanhao Li, Erke Gao, Dejing Zhang, Dunxu Hu, Pengtian Zhao, Han Ding, Baoyou Fan, Tao Zhang, Xiaomeng Song, Zhijian Wei, Guangzhi Ning, Yong-Qiang Li, Shiqing Feng

“…These effects are mediated through the downregulation of CCAAT enhancer binding protein-β expression in the spleen and the upregulation of FZD4 protein expression in Lin− Sca-1+ c-kit+ cells (LSKs) within the bone marrow. Our findings demonstrate that EJCDs effectively reduce myeloid cell infiltration post-spinal cord injury and promote neurological recovery, making them promising therapeutic candidates for treating spinal cord injuries.…”
