How Do You Increase Glial Cells, Axons, & Dendrites Of Human Brain?
A Breakthrough in Nerve Cell Regeneration When you conjure up an image of cells, what do you see? What do you think? You may see a snapshot of an animal tissue, perhaps with actively dividing cells. That’s understandable because, as animals ourselves, we’re aware that cells come from other cells, thus the need to undergo mitosis, or cell division, frequently. But one kind of mammalian animal cell does not fit that image—nerve cells. They do not arrange themselves as cells in a typical tissue do. Nerve cells are singular, with a long, sometimes very long, threadlike extension called an axon. And they don’t undergo mitosis frequently, except in embryos. This apparent aberration in the world of cells has puzzled scientists and medical researchers. If one could get nerve cells to behave more like other cells in terms of regeneration, a host of nerve-related diseases and damage could be reversed. ScienceDaily published a story on January 26, 2009, reporting on exactly that kind of breakthro
