Mechanism of Nogo and Its Receptors during Repairing of Spinal Cord Injury (review) / 中国康复理论与实践

ABSTRACT

@# Myelin of the adult mammalian central nervous system(CNS)has been attributed to affect nerve structural plasticity and suppress regeneration of nerve fibers.Nogo-A is possibly the best characterized of a variety of neurite growth inhibitors in CNS myelin.Neutralizing its activity results in improved axon regrowth and functional recovery in experimental spinal cord injury(SCI)models of animals.Nogo-A and its receptors,especially Nogo-66 receptor(NgR),p75 neurotrophin receptor(p75NTR),and LINGO-1 increasingly become the hot spot in the study of SCI repair,and have become the major targets for therapeutic intervention to promote axon regeneration after SCI.Inhibition of Nogo-A and its receptors NgR/p75NTR/LINGO-1 may be promote the regeneration of axon and maximize functional recovery after SCI.
