Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine immediate and long-term effects of a single injection of chABC on chondroitin sulphate proteoglycans, chondroitin sulphate glycosaminoglycan and axon regeneration after unilateral nigrostriatal lesions in adult rats are investigated. In chABC-treated animals, the total chondroitin sulphate glycosaminoglycan remain at low level throughout the 28 day experimental period. This suggests the persistence of active chABC for at least 10 days after injection which is able to digest chondroitin sulphate proteoglycans released from cells during this time. Results suggest that a single injection of chABC can produce an environment conducive to CNS repair for over 10 days Proteus vulgaris
