Why is this of particular interest? I work in a neurology research lab that specializes in stroke. There are dozens of proteins that have similar effects, BDNF, EGF, VEGF, NGF, etc., not to mention miRNAs.

This is just one small component of brain repair.

Oddly, it seems that I am seeing more of this on HN lately.

How early does these trigger growth ? I find it a bit paradoxical that in a time of resource denial growth should occur. Obviously I'm missing something.

This sound really cool. Have there been any new significant developments in neurology recently?
