NIH-funded research pinpoints protein that sprouts into action, activating stroke repair
Bethesda, Maryland–(ENEWSPF)–October 29, 2015. Looking at brain tissue from mice, monkeys and humans, scientists have found that a molecule known as growth and differentiation factor 10 (GDF10) is a key player in repair mechanisms following stroke. The findings suggest that GDF10 may be a potential therapy for recovery after stroke. The study, published in Nature Neuroscience, was supported by the National Institute of Neurological…
