Early-phase rotator training impairs tissue repair and functional recovery after spinal cord injury.

ABSTRACT: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating disorder that often results in severe sensorimotor function impairment with limited recovery of function. In recent years, rehabilitation training for spinal cord injury has gradually emerged, and some of them play an important role in the repair of spinal cord injury However, the optimal training regimen for SCI remains to be determined. In this study, we explore the effects of rotarod training (began at 7 days post-injury) on the recovery of motor function after SCI, as well as its possible repair mechanism from the aspects of function and histopathological changes, the behaviors of specific trophic factors and cytokines, and the expression profile of specific genes. Multiple functional assessments showed that rotarod training initiated at 7 days
