This confirms FibroBiologics’ previous report of remyelination with the Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis (EAE) animal model. Myelin sheath, the insulating layer around nerve fibers, is critical for proper nerve function and is often damaged in neurodegenerative diseases like multiple sclerosis. In the brain, the myelin sheath plays a critical role in speeding up communications between neurons. This is especially important in the brain, where rapid and precise signaling is needed for functions like thinking, memory, movement, and coordination.","length":751,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"“This confirmation by our talented team of researchers demonstrates that fibroblasts can support the regeneration of myelin sheath, marking a potentially significant step in the utilization of a cell-based therapeutic in regenerative medicine,” said Hamid Khoja, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of FibroBiologics.","length":313,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"“Our team’s findings advance our understanding of fibroblasts’ regenera...
