A group of researchers at NUST MISIS has developed a neuroimplant for the human spinal cord. The device, which is implanted at the site of injury, can stimulate the growth of nerve tissues.
The scientists explained that paralysis occurs due to the cessation of nerve signal transmission. If nerve tissues are restored, the patient may regain motor functions.
We use bioresorbable polymers that are mechanically similar to native spinal cord tissues
According to her, the researchers created a directed nanostructure to which cells attach, forming new pathways. Zelenova emphasized that there is currently no therapy for damaged spinal cords. However, their nanostructures have a great future.
The development has already proven its effectiveness on cell cultures. Animal trials have now begun.
Regenerative technologies in medicine were presented at the Forum of Future Technologies, which took place in Moscow. The stands featured bionic prostheses, a robotic ultrasound system, quantum glasses with in vitro diagnostics and other industry innovations.
Earlier, President Vladimir Putin stated the importance of AI technologies, genetics and genomics, and neurotechnology for modern medicine. He emphasized that Russia is ready to cooperate with other countries in advanced medical fields.
