Magnetic Field‐Assisted Conductive Nerve Guidance Conduit Enabling Peripheral Nerve Regeneration with Wireless Electrical Stimulation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a conductive nerve guidance conduit integrated with wireless electrical stimulation through alternating magnetic fields, which induces currents and creates a supportive microenvironment for nerve regeneration. In vivo studies show that this approach significantly enhanced myelin restoration, gastrocnemius muscle regeneration ...

Gene Manipulation Strategies to Identify Molecular Regulators of Axon Regeneration in the Central Nervous System

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Limited axon regeneration in the injured adult mammalian central nervous system (CNS) usually results in irreversible functional deficits. Both the presence of extrinsic inhibitory molecules at the injury site and the intrinsically low capacity of adult ...

Role of GPR55 during Axon Growth and Target Innervation

open access: yeseNeuro, 2015
Guidance molecules regulate the navigation of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) projections toward targets in the visual thalamus. In this study, we demonstrate that the G-protein-coupled receptor 55 (GPR55) is expressed in the retina during development, and ...

Biomimetic Design of Biocompatible Neural Probes for Deep Brain Signal Monitoring and Stimulation: Super Static Interface for Immune Response‐Enhanced Contact

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Ultrathin, flexible neural probes are developed with an innovative, biomimetic design incorporating brain tissue‐compatible materials. The material system employs biomolecule‐based encapsulation agents to mitigate inflammatory responses, as demonstrated through comprehensive in vitro and in vivo studies.

The Arp2/3 complex, UNC-115/abLIM, and UNC-34/Enabled regulate axon guidance and growth cone filopodia formation in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesNeural Development, 2009
Background While many molecules involved in axon guidance have been identified, the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which these molecules regulate growth cone morphology during axon outgrowth remain to be elucidated.

Neuron Growth Control by PDE Backstepping: Axon Length Regulation by Tubulin Flux Actuation in Soma [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
In this work, stabilization of an axonal growth in a neuron associated with the dynamics of tubulin concentration is proposed by designing a boundary control. The dynamics are given by a parabolic Partial Differential Equation (PDE) of the tubulin concentration, with a spatial domain of the axon's length governed by an Ordinary Differential Equation ...

Rac1 plays an essential role in axon growth and guidance and in neuronal survival in the central and peripheral nervous systems

open access: yesNeural Development, 2015
BackgroundRac1 is a critical regulator of cytoskeletal dynamics in multiple cell types. In the nervous system, it has been implicated in the control of cell proliferation, neuronal migration, and axon development.ResultsTo systematically investigate the ...

The Axonal Membrane Protein PRG2 Inhibits PTEN and Directs Growth to Branches

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: In developing neurons, phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) control axon growth and branching by positively regulating PI3K/PI(3,4,5)P3, but how neurons are able to generate sufficient PI(3,4,5)P3 in the presence of high levels of the antagonizing

Retrograde Ret signaling controls sensory pioneer axon outgrowth

open access: yeseLife, 2019
The trafficking mechanisms and transcriptional targets downstream of long-range neurotrophic factor ligand/receptor signaling that promote axon growth are incompletely understood. Zebrafish carrying a null mutation in a neurotrophic factor receptor, Ret,

Mechanisms of Axon Elongation Following CNS Injury: What Is Happening at the Axon Tip?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
After an injury to the central nervous system (CNS), functional recovery is limited by the inability of severed axons to regenerate and form functional connections with appropriate target neurons beyond the injury.
