Working model of FA action on SCI recovery. In NSCs, FA induces hypoxia, and subsequently represses miR-590 expression via the HRE in the promoter region, which eventually elevates expression of VEGF that otherwise is inhibited by miR-590. Therefore by increasing VEGF expression, FA is then able to improve the efficacy of NSC transplant therapy to repair SCI.
