A research study led by the University of Barcelona describes how brain neurons in mice can be rejuvenated through a controlled cellular reprogramming cycle.
The paper could open up new perspectives for studying neurodegenerative diseases in patients.
It emphasizes the role of what are known as the Yamanaka factors, key proteins for reversing aging that have been little studied in the nervous system.
The study extends the understanding of the functions of the Yamanaka factors described to date.
The factors were known to enhance regeneration after injury in retinal ganglion cells.
The researchers conclude that, based on the new results, they want to "promote future research to determine which other diseases of the nervous system could benefit from cell reprogramming technology".
