The Vision of the Future
Our goal is to get from where we are now up to a level where we have the ability to regenerate central nervous system damage. The regeneration will thus reverse the effects of paralysis, Alzheimers, and even Lou Gehrig's Disease. We would be able to perform thi by a two part plan. The first and more invasive part utilizes Neural Stem Cells (NSC) injected into the area of damage. This would be all aided by the second part which would utilize a chemical that inhibits RhoA in return promoting the regeneration of axons. Certain Rho GTPases found in Ibuprofen can be used promote axon regeneration. We can use this technology to regenerate central nervous tissue which will help to treat those suffering from any neurodegenerative disease, paralysis, or severe brain damage of any kind.
