Reprogramming of Corticospinal Neurons Improves Recovery of Function in Mice Following Stroke

This article previews a mouse neuroscience study on using transient cellular reprogramming to boost corticospinal neuron plasticity and aid motor rehabilitation after stroke.

Key Takeaways
  • Neuroplasticity is well demonstrated to decline with age
  • It is worth noting that for the purposes of a mouse study
  • Expression of the Yamanaka factors was transiently induced by treatment with doxycycline
