Microenvironmental and transcriptional determinants of the robustness of spinal cord regeneration in zebrafish

Unlike mammals, adult zebrafish can regenerate spinal cord tissue after complete transection. We report here that a substantial proportion of zebrafish receiving this injury fail to regain locomotor function, and we analyzed this critically. After stratifying large cohorts of injured animals according to functional rec...
