Here is some interesting spinal injury treatment I have have been researching using HupA.

Alleviation of chronic pain following rat spinal cord compression injury with multimodal actions of huperzine A.

Neuropathic pain, one of the most debilitating sequelae of neurotrauma, is an unmet clinical need for at least 40% of patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). We demonstrate that [-]-huperzine A (HUP-A), a naturally occurring Lycopodium alkaloid isolated from the Chinese club moss, Huperzia serrata, with potent reversible inhibitory action on acetylcholinesterase and N-methyl-d-aspartate glutamate receptors, offers an exceptional prospect for multimodal treatment of SCI-induced neuropathic pain in rats. HUP-A restores homeostasis of central sensory neurocircuitry without invoking drug tolerance and dependence or respiratory suppression. We therefore conclude that multimodal actions provide a fresh translational approach to reduce chronic pain.

Original Message Xiaoping Ren and Sergio Canavero said the new work they published in a scientific journal showed that monkeys and dogs were able to walk again after their spinal cords were "fully transected" during surgery and then put back together again. The neurosurgeons described the results as medically "unprecedented."
