Axons are generally believed to be incapable of regeneration in the adult central nervous system,. Inhibition results from physical barriers imposed by glial scars, a lack of neurotrophic factors, and growth-inhibitory molecules associated with myelin,,, the insulating axon sheath. These molecules include proteoglycans, myelin-associated glycoprotein,and, in bovine brain, two proteins called Nogo,,. We have used this bovine sequence to identify the humanNogogene and have isolated complementary DNA clones encoding three different Nogo isoforms that are potent inhibitors of neurite outgrowth and which may help block the regeneration of the central nervous system in adults.
