Abstract excerpt
Chondroitin sulphate proteoglycans (CSPGs) are inhibitors to axon regeneration and plasticity. Bacterial chondroitinase ABC degrades CSPGs and has been extensively reported to be therapeutic after SCI but there remain concerns for its clinical translation. A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs-4 (ADAMTS4) is a human enzyme that catalyses the proteolysis of CSPG protein cores. Infusion of A...
