The generation of new nerve cells in the brain is regulated by a peptide known
as C3a, which directly affects the stem cells' maturation into nerve cells and
is also important for the migration of new nerve cells through the brain
tissue, reveals new research from the Sahlgrenska Academy published in the
journal Stem Cells.

Although the research has been carried out using mice and cultured cells, it
could lead to a new medicine for human beings, which could be given to patients
who have had a stroke or other disorders that damage or destroy the nerve
cells.
"Our research findings show that it could be possible to use molecules that are
similar to the peptide C3a to boost the formation of nerve cells and stimulate
the replacement of nerve cells lost due to injury or illness," says senior
lecturer Marcela Pekna who headed the research group at theSahlgrenska Academy.
