Cholesterol synthesis inhibition or depletion in axon regeneration

Cholesterol synthesis inhibition or depletion in axon regeneration

Cholesterol is biosynthesized by all animal cells. Beyond its metabolic role in steroidogenesis, it is enriched in the plasma membrane where it has key structural and regulatory functions. Cholesterol is thus presumably important for post-injury axon regrowth, and this notion is supported by studies...
