A genetic mutation that helps animals like yaks and Tibetan antelopes survive at high altitudes may hold the key to repairing ...

The genetic mutation that enables yaks to live in environments with much less oxygen, and may hold the key to repairing nerve damage ...

Scientists identify a high-altitude genetic mutation in yaks that produces ATDR, a Vitamin A metabolite that repairs myelin damage in MS and cerebral paralysis.

Scientists have discovered that a genetic change found in animals living at very high altitudes may help repair damage in the human nervous system. The finding could eventually lead to new treatments ...

The discovery could open up new ways for treating diseases such as MS by leveraging molecules that are already present in the human body.

The results of newly reported preclinical research indicate that a genetic mutation that helps animals including yaks and Tibetan antelopes survive at high altitudes may hold the key to repairing ...

The US Food and Drug Administration has approved a new system for nerve repair based on light-activated polymers rather than surgical stitches. The flexible polymer system was developed by the medical ...

A British medical start-up has accomplished what is believed to be a world first by harnessing spider silk to regenerate damaged nerve tissue in humans. Newrotex, founded by NHS trauma and orthopaedic ...
