Efficacy of rehabilitative experience declines with time after focal ischemic brain injury.

TL;DR: The data suggest that the poststroke brain displays heightened sensitivity to rehabilitative experience early after the stroke but declines with time, which has important implications for rehabilitation of stroke patients, many of whom experience considerable delays before therapy is initiated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enriched rehabilitative training promotes improved forelimb motor function and enhanced dendritic growth after focal ischemic injury

TL;DR: It is suggested that enrichment combined with task-specific rehabilitative therapy is capable of augmenting intrinsic neuronal plasticity within noninjured, functionally connected brain regions, as well as promoting enhanced functional outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

SKPs Derive from Hair Follicle Precursors and Exhibit Properties of Adult Dermal Stem Cells

TL;DR: It is shown that skin-derived precursors (SKPs) derive from Sox2(+) hair follicle dermal cells and that these two cell populations are similar with regard to their transcriptome and functional properties.
