Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a kind of serious lesion which can result in deformity. And the incidence is usually high in the youth and the adult. Furthermore, people suffering from SCI often need long-time treatment and recovery, which is also a huge burden to both their family and the society. But at present few methods are effective for SCI, except the only way of high-dose intravenous administration of methylprednisolone that has been proved clinically useful for human SCI. There are, however, many restrictions in the use of this methylprednisolon. Therefore,finding a way to effectively reduce the lesion and even to make the injured axonal regenerate has been being a hot spot in neurobiology research all the time. Scientists have done a great deal of fruitful research about pathology and...
