Squair,Grégoire Courtine +25 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors show that spinal cord injury interrupts pathways from the brain and brainstem that project to the lumbar spinal cord, leading to paralysis, and they demonstrate that a single population of excitatory interneurons nested within intermediate laminae is essential for the recovery of walking with EES.
Neuroprosthetic baroreflex controls haemodynamics after spinal cord injury

TL;DR: In this paper, a neuroprosthetic baroreflex was developed to restore haemodynamic stability after spinal cord injury, which is due to the interruption of supraspinal efferent commands to sympathetic circuits located in the spinal cord.
Evaluating the role of IL-11, a novel cytokine in the IL-6 family, in a mouse model of spinal cord injury
Newton Cho,Dung H. Nguyen,Kajana Satkunendrarajah,Donald R. Branch,Michael G. Fehlings,Michael G. Fehlings +5 more
TL;DR: This study provides evidence that IL-11 signaling may not play as significant a role in SCI as other gp130 cytokines, which will ideally guide future therapy design and the signaling pathways those therapies target.

TL;DR: The impending arrival of bioelectronic medicine in the field of SCI is summarized and the new role of functional neurosurgeons in neurorestorative interventional medicine is discussed, a new discipline at the intersection of neurosurgery, neuro-engineering, and neurorehabilitation.
Preclinical upper limb neurorobotic platform to assess, rehabilitate, and develop therapies
Maria Pasquini,Nicholas D. James,Inssia Dewany,Florent-Valéry Coen,Newton Cho,Stefano Lai,Selin Anil,Jacopo Carpaneto,Quentin Barraud,Stéphanie P. Lacour,Silvestro Micera,Grégoire Courtine +11 more
TL;DR: A robotic platform with four DOFs facilitates the assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of upper limb deficits in rats that allowed us to uncover adaptations in corticospinal tract neuron dynamics underlying recovery after spinal cord injury (SCI).
