Spinal Cord
Check us out at www.tutorvista.com The spinal cord is a long, thin, tubular bundle of nervous tissue and support cells that extends from the brain (the medulla specifically). The brain and spinal cord together make up the central nervous system. The spinal cord extends down to the space between the first and second lumbar vertebrae; it does not extend the entire length of the vertebral column. It is around 45 cm (18 in) in men and around 43 cm (17 in) long in women. The enclosing bony vertebral column protects the relatively shorter spinal cord. The spinal cord functions primarily in the transmission of neural signals between the brain and the rest of the body but also contains neural circuits that can independently control numerous reflexes and central pattern generators. The spinal cord has three major functions: A. Serve as a conduit for motor information, which travels down the spinal cord. B. Serve as a conduit for sensory information, which travels up the spinal cord. C. Serve as a center for coordinating certain reflexes. The spinal cord is the main pathway for information connecting the brain and peripheral nervous system. The length of the spinal cord is much shorter than the length of the bony spinal column. The human spinal cord extends from the medulla oblongata and continues through the conus medullaris near the first or second lumbar vertebra, terminating in a fibrous extension known as the filum terminale. It is about 45 cm (18 in) long in men and around 43 <b>...</b>

Spinal Cord Injury, Part 1, by David Bailey
This short video will show you the status of a few people living today with Spinal Cord Injuries. If you have a heart, it will touch you, along with giving you some insight into what it's like to live with spinal cord injuries. Not just for the injured person, but their entire family. But there is more to this story! Progress is being made in Spinal Cord Research! And ultimately, this story could end happily - with a real treatment, and someday, a cure for spinal cord injury.

Spinal Cord Injury: Progress and Promise in Stem Cell Research
The world's first human embryonic stem cell-based clinical trial has been approved for the treatment of spinal cord injury. Oswald Steward, Director of the Reeve-Irvine Research Center at UC Irvine and member of the CIRM Governing Board, discusses the pioneering work that led to the clinical trial and Roman Reed gives a personal perspective of spinal cord injury and his patient advocacy work. Reed is president of the Roman Reed Foundation and was the inspiration for California's Roman Reed Spinal Cord Injury Research Act of 1999. For more info, go to: www.cirm.ca.gov

Engineering Angiogenesis Following Spinal Cord Injury
Title: Engineering angiogenesis following spinal cord injury: building functional, stable blood vessels and promoting the formation of the blood-spinal cord barrier Speaker: Erin Lavik, Sc.D. Seminar Series: Neural Prosthesis Seminar Date: September 12, 2008 Location: Nord 310 A&B Case Western Reserve University Sponsored By: The FES and the APT Centers Presented By: Erin Lavik, Sc.D. Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering School of Engineering and Applied Science Yale University, New Haven, CT Hosted by: Hunter Peckham, Ph.D. Donnell Professor of Biomedical Engineering and Orthopaedics Case Western Reserve University Director, Functional Electrical Stimulation Center Louis Stokes Veterans Affairs Medical Center MetroHealth Medical Center Abstract: It is estimated that there are 250000 people in the US with spinal cord injuries (SCI) and over 2 million worldwide. While, the majority of SCI research has focused on regenerating neural tissue, recovery is correlated with angiogenesis. Furthermore, vessels appear to play an important role in the neural stem cell (NSC) niche and may promote the proliferation, and neuronal differentiation of NSCs. However, inducing angiogenesis following SCI has been challenging since many of the factors and drugs permeabilize the surrounding vessels and can exacerbate injury. Engineering vascular networks could be an alternative to inducing extensive angiogenesis, but it has been challenging to engineer vascular networks that are stable <b>...</b>
