GDF10 Promotes Brain Cells’ Ability to Form New Connections

Scientists from UCLA have identified a molecule (GDF10) that signals brain tissue to form new connections after a stroke. The finding could eventually lead to a new treatment to promote brain repair and functional recovery in people who have suffered a stroke, which is the leading cause of serious long-term disability in adults. The five-year […]
