Paralysis cure? Old drug found to help regenerate spinal cord cells
A groundbreaking study from UC San Diego has identified Thiorphan, an existing drug, as a potential game-changer for spinal cord injuries. Researchers used advanced bioinformatics to discover its ability to stimulate nerve regrowth and restore motor function in animal models. This discovery offers significant hope for reversing paralysis, with human trials anticipated.
