New Method Found to Treat Motor Neuron Disease Tetanus

UCL scientists have discovered how tetanus neurotoxin enters nerve cells and explained how this can be blocked to offer potential therapeutic intervention for tetanus. This newly-discovered pathway could be exploited to deliver therapies to the nervous system, opening up a whole new way to treat neurological disorders such as motor neuron disease and peripheral neuropathies. The research in mice, published in iScience/i and funded by the Medical Research Council, ...
