Brain Function can be Preserved by Self-Repairing Mechanism in Neurodegenerative Diseases

A process called neurogenesis, which is the self-repairing mechanism of the adult brain, can help to preserve brain function in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's or Parkinson's, scientists at the University of Southampton have found. The progressive degeneration and death of the brain, occurring in many neurodegenerative diseases, is often seen as an unstoppable and irrevocable process. However, the brain has some self-repairing potential that accounts ...
