Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A series of ultraviolet‐ and near‐infrared radiation sensitive photoactivatable hydrogels are developed that can be controlled spatiotemporally down to µm precisions using one‐ and two‐photon uncaging. The latent hydroxylamine‐, hydrazine‐, and amine uncaged moieties are used to photopattern a series of diverse proteins displaying complimentary ...

dSarm/Sarm1 Is Required for Activation of an Injury-Induced Axon Death Pathway
Science, 2012 Sarm-Assisted Suicide Neurodegenerative disease or nerve lesions cause axons and synapses to disintegrate through a process known as Wallerian degeneration, which may involve an active “axon death program.” Osterloh et al. (p.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.In this work, melt electrowriting is used to fabricate a 3D printed scaffold design that generates engineered cardiac tissues with in‐plane contraction, mimicking natural myocardium. It is shown that these tissues display advanced maturation and functionality.

Axcaliber: A method for measuring axon diameter distribution from diffusion MRI
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2008 The diameter of a myelinated nerve axon is directly proportional to its conduction velocity, so the axon diameter distribution helps determine the channel capacity of nervous transmission along fascicles in the central (CNS) and peripheral nervous ...

N-Propionylmannosamine stimulates axonal elongation in a murine model of sciatic nerve injury
Neural Regeneration Research, 2015 Increasing evidence indicates that sialic acid plays an important role during nerve regeneration. Sialic acids can be modified in vitro as well as in vivo using metabolic oligosaccharide engineering of the N-acyl side chain.

Biointerfacing with AgBiS2 Quantum Dots for Pseudocapacitive Photostimulation
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.It is demonstrated that AgBiS2 quantum dots exhibit unique photoinduced pseudocapacitive charge transfer properties, enabling efficient light‐to‐electrical energy conversion. These quantum dots facilitate enhanced light absorption and transduction when integrated with ZnO nanowires, which serve as an effective charge transport medium.

A rise in NAD precursor nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) after injury promotes axon degeneration
Cell Death and Differentiation, 2014 NAD metabolism regulates diverse biological processes, including ageing, circadian rhythm and axon survival. Axons depend on the activity of the central enzyme in NAD biosynthesis, nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase 2 (NMNAT2), for their ...

The effects of cyclical simulation on the axon hillock diameter of murine intracortical neurons [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Changes to the axon hillock in frequently firing neurons are known to be important predictors of early disease states. Studying this phenomenon is critical to understanding the first insult implicated in multiple neuro-degenerative disorders. To study these changes we used cyclical stimulations using micro-electrodes to the axon hillock of mouse ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Differential signaling via the same axon of neocortical pyramidal neurons.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1998 The nature of information stemming from a single neuron and conveyed simultaneously to several hundred target neurons is not known. Triple and quadruple neuron recordings revealed that each synaptic connection established by neocortical pyramidal neurons
