Zebrafish use surprising strategy to regrow spinal cord: Findings could help identify ways to heal spinal cord damage

Zebrafish are members of a rarefied group of vertebrates capable of fully healing a severed spinal cord. A clear understanding of how this regeneration takes place could provide clues toward strategies for healing spinal cord injuries in people. Such injuries can be devastating, causing permanent loss of sensation and movement. Zebrafish are members of a rarefied group of vertebrates capable of fully healing a severed spinal cord.
