Description for Transplantation of Neural Tissue into the Spinal Cord
Hardback. Presents results from various experiments where grafts of neuronal, glial and other tissues, as well as artificial materials, were placed into the spinal cord. This second edition contains findings, which show that grafted tissue can thrive in a host mammal, occasionally replace lost function and re-establish a semblance of complex circuitries. Series: Neuroscience Intelligence Unit. Num Pages: 150 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MNQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 14. Weight in Grams: 451.
The book gives an account of results obtained from experiments where grafts of neuronal, glial and other tissues as well as artificial materials were placed into the spinal cord. It attempts to evaluate the contributions made by these studies to our understanding of basic neurobiologies questions. These include factors that regulate neuronal growth during development as well as regenera tion following injury to the nervous system. The model of neural transplanta tion is also useful for the study of cell-to-cell interactions, and this applies to interactions between glial cells and neurones, between various populations of neuronal cells and finally between ...
