Impairment of peripheral nerve regeneration by insufficient activation of the HGF/c-Met/c-Jun pathway in aged mice
Aging in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) leads to its dysfunction and lowers regenerative capacity after injury. Based on the pro-regenerative effect of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) in injured peripheral nerves, we investigated whether this growth factor is involved in the age-related degenera...
