DATA+STATISTICS-CMNB-CARNOSINE-PAPER.xlsx

Both intraspinal and intramuscular local administration of neurotrophic factors (NFs) have been shown to protect neural tissue after traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). In our study, we investigated how carnosine, a natural antioxidant commonly used as a supplement by many athletes, affects the expression of brain- and glial cell line-derived NFs (BDNF, GDNF) in the neuronal and muscle microenvironment six weeks after SCI.
