This study identifies collagen I as a key inhibitor of axonal regeneration in spinal cord injury and shows that aspirin and pirfenidone reduce collagen I and promote axonal growth.

This study identifies PTPσ as a critical regulator of Alzheimer-related pathologies by modulating APP proteolytic metabolism and downstream pathogenic processes.

This study shows that blocking CSPG production and the receptor PTPσ improves functional recovery in chronic spinal cord injury models.
