Strategies to restore motor functions after spinal cord injury
Abstract
This review presents recent advances in the development of strategies to restore posture and locomotion after spinal cord injury (SCI). A set of strategies focusing on the lesion site includes prevention of secondary damages, promotion of axonal sprouting/regeneration, and replacement of lost cells. Other strategies focus on spinal central pattern generators (CPGs). Training promotes functional recovery by enhancing the plasticity of CPGs and...
