席達贊．坎卓然: 受損的大腦能自癒嗎？

受損的大腦能自癒嗎？

受到創傷性的大腦受傷後，偶爾可以自癒，長出新的腦細胞來替代受損的腦細胞。但自癒啟動的時間還尚未快到能從有退化狀況下像是運動神經疾病（也被稱做「盧．賈里格氏症」，或是「肌萎縮脊髓側索硬化症」，俗稱漸凍人）恢復原狀，席達贊．坎卓然（音譯）詳細解說一些利用特定幹細胞的新技術，能夠讓受損的腦部重建得更快速。

The brain holds a surprising ability to repair itself, but this natural process is too slow to reverse the devastation of diseases like ALS and multiple sclerosis. With 35 million people affected worldwide and costs topping $700 billion annually, the need for solutions is urgent. Advances in stem cell science now allow the creation of personalized tissue repair kits, opening possibilities for both drug discovery and direct therapies. Early trials even show stem cells helping nerves recover in conditions once thought hopeless.
