  • Publication number: 20080317741
    Abstract: This disclosure of this invention confirms, at the level of gene expression, the injured spinal cord and motor cortex as the primary sites of action of the anti-Nogo-A antibody treatment applied intrathecally. The disclosure further provides methods for predicting the response of a subject to a medicament comprising an anti-Nogo-A antibody.
