The paradox between resistance to hypoxia and liability to hypoxic damage in hyperglycemic peripheral nerves. Evidence for glycolysis involvement [PDF]

, 1993
Isolated ventral and dorsal rat spinal roots incubated in normal (2.5 mM) or high glucose (25 mM) concentrations or in high concentrations of other hexoses were exposed transiently to hypoxia (30 min) in a solution of low buffering power.

Conditioning Electrical Stimulation for Patients with Moderate or Severe Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Double Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) can drastically impair one's ability to work and interferes with activities of daily living. We recently demonstrated that, in rodents, conditioning electrical stimulation (CES) delivered to the nerve 7 days prior to surgery imparts a conditioning lesion‐like effect by accelerating the rate of regeneration along ...

T Cell Response in Acute Motor Axonal Neuropathy

International Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2009
There is evidence that in the acute axonal motor neuropathy (AMAN) subtype of Guillain-Barré syndrome antibodies to gangliosides, produced through molecular mimicry by antecedent Campylobacter jejuni ( C. jejuni) infection, attack gangliosides expressed in human peripheral nerve axolemma, inducing a primary axonal damage.

Combinatorial expression of glial transcription factors induces Schwann cell‐specific gene expression in mouse embryonic fibroblasts

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Schwann cells provide peripheral nerve trophic support, myelinate axons, and assist in repair. However, Schwann cell repair capacity is limited by chronic injury, disease, and aging. Schwann cell reprogramming is a cellular conversion strategy that could provide a renewable cell supply to repair injured nerves.

Mechanisms of spinal glial activation in chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy: Focus on microglia and astrocytes

Ibrain, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) remains a major clinical challenge, with central sensitization considered an important pathological mechanism in its occurrence and persistence. This review focuses on spinal astrocytes and microglia, systematically summarizing the pathological mechanisms of spinal glial cells involved in CIPN caused by

Acute Intermittent Porphyria: Flaccid Quadriplegia and Encephalopathy due to Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES) [PDF]

Liaquat National Journal of Primary Care
A deficiency of the enzyme HMB Hydroxymethylbilane synthase function, also known as porphobilinogen deaminase, leads to the emergence of acute intermittent porphyria (AIP). AIP is an uncommon form of hepatic porphyria inherited in an autosomal dominant

Clinical Spectrum and Outcome of Guillain-Barré Syndrome with Plasmapheresis

Indian Journal of Medical Specialities, 2022
Context: Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute inflammatory neuropathy and has several electrophysiological subtypes and clinical variants. Treatment is mainly supportive and immunotherapy is given to shorten the disease course. Aims: The aim of this

Potential neuroprotective and therapeutic agents and their mechanisms for irradiation‐induced brain injury

Ibrain, EarlyView.
In this review, agents such baicalein, troxerutin, epigallocatechin gallate, quercetin, melatonin, valproic acid, lithium, neurosteroid progesterone, as well as minocycline have been implicated as neuroprotective agents for irradiation‐induced neurological deficits. Also, agents such as glucocorticoids, methylphenidate, vitamin E, bisdemethoxycurcumin,
