Characterized by a wide range of clinical symptoms, including spontaneous pain, allodynia, and hyperalgesia, patients experiencing neuropathic pain…
Oligodendrocytes are key neural cells responsible for producing myelin sheaths that wrap around neuronal axons in the central nervous system[1]. Considering that thymosin β4’s (Tβ4) ability to promote neurological recovery in a range of neurological diseases has been well established, Chopp & Zhang (2015) propose oligodendrogenesis as the common link by which Tβ4 supports and…
