Basic Science of Nerve and Muscle
 The role of RAGE in peripheral nervous system degeneration and regeneration.
This series of basic science studies explore the role of the Receptor for Advanced Glycosolation End products (RAGE) on nerve degeneration and recovery following traumatic nerve injury.
STATUS: Ongoing research; no human component at present.
FOR MORE INFORMATION: See "Rong LL, Gooch C, Szabolcs M, Herold KC, Hays AP, Yan SF, Du Yan SS, and Schmidt AM: RAGE & the Nervous System: Striking A Fine Balance Between Injury & Repair. Restorative Neurology and Neuroscience. 2006;23:355-65.
Projects In Development:
NOTE: We are actively seeking funding for these studies, which remain in development and are not yet launched or enrolling.
