Photo‐Biomodulation of the Hippocampus Using Near‐Infrared Laser to Enhance Cognitive Function in Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Here a transcranial photo‐biomodulation approach is developed using near‐infrared (NIR) laser on hippocampus of mice, revealing significant improvements in learning and memory ability of mice under normal and disease conditions. The improvement results from the high‐density cell‐induced NIR local energy deposition, neuronal activation, and axonogenesis

Assembly and turnover of neurofilaments in growing axonal neurites

open access: yesBiology Open, 2018
Neurofilaments (NFs) are thought to provide stability to the axon. We examined NF dynamics within axonal neurites of NB2a/d1 neuroblastoma by transient transfection with green fluorescent protein-tagged NF-heavy (GFP-H) under the control of a ...

gACSON software for automated segmentation and morphology analyses of myelinated axons in 3D electron microscopy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Background and Objective: Advances in electron microscopy (EM) now allow three-dimensional (3D) imaging of hundreds of micrometers of tissue with nanometer-scale resolution, providing new opportunities to study the ultrastructure of the brain. In this work, we introduce a freely available Matlab-based gACSON software for visualization, segmentation ...

Notch signalling in adult neurons: a potential target for microtubule stabilization

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Neurological Disorders, 2013
Cytoskeletal dysfunction has been proposed during the last decade as one of the main mechanisms involved in the aetiology of several neurodegenerative diseases.

m6A‐mRNA Reader YTHDF2 Identified as a Potential Risk Gene in Autism With Disproportionate Megalencephaly

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among autistic individuals, a subphenotype of disproportionate megalencephaly (ASD‐DM) seen at three years of age is associated with co‐occurring intellectual disability and poorer prognoses later in life. However, many of the genes contributing to ASD‐DM have yet to be delineated. In this study, we identified additional ASD‐DM candidate genes

Progress of Research on Diffuse Axonal Injury after Traumatic Brain Injury

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2016
The current work reviews the concept, pathological mechanism, and process of diagnosing of DAI. The pathological mechanism underlying DAI is complicated, including axonal breakage caused by axonal retraction balls, discontinued protein transport along ...

Artificial intelligence‐assisted design, synthesis and analysis of smart biomaterials

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Smart biomaterials are rapidly emerging as tools for tissue engineering, and artificial intelligence has played essential roles in biomaterial studies. By bridging the literature gap in AI‐based design, synthesis and analysis of smart biomaterials, the current review shares perspectives on how biomaterial scientists can practically incorporate AI for ...

Watery and dark axons in Wallerian degeneration of the opossum's optic nerve: different patterns of cytoskeletal breakdown?

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2001
In this paper we report a qualitative morphological analysis of Wallerian degeneration in a marsupial. Right optic nerves of opossums Didelphis marsupialis were crushed with a fine forceps and after 24, 48, 72, 96 and 168 hours the animals were ...

Heterogeneous distribution of axonal cytoskeleton proteins in the human optic nerve.

open access: yesInvestigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 2009
PURPOSE Cytoskeleton proteins play a critical role in maintaining retinal ganglion cell structure, viability, and function. This study documents the distribution of cytoskeleton protein subunits in the various regions of the normal human optic nerve and ...

Loss of Tdp-43 disrupts the axonal transcriptome of motoneurons accompanied by impaired axonal translation and mitochondria function

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2020
Protein inclusions containing the RNA-binding protein TDP-43 are a pathological hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and other neurodegenerative disorders.
