Cognitive Sequelae of Diffuse Axonal Injury [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Neurology, 2006
The results of recent studies on cognitive disability after traumatic brain injury-associated diffuse axonal injury (DAI) are inconsistent. In these studies, the diagnosis of DAI relied on cranial computed tomography.To further clarify the extent and severity of a possibly DAI-associated cognitive impairment by the use of magnetic resonance imaging ...

Axonal Injury Following Focal Cerebral Ischaemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Myelinated axons are essential for the normal functioning of the brain. Since myelinated axons, like grey matter, are dependent on a continuous supply of energy, it is likely that ischaemic injury compromises axonal function as well as that of the ...

Anti-GD1a antibodies activate complement and calpain to injure distal motor nodes of Ranvier in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The motor axonal variant of Guillain-Barré syndrome is associated with anti-GD1a immunoglobulin antibodies, which are believed to be the pathogenic factor. In previous studies we have demonstrated the motor terminal to be a vulnerable site.

Neuroinflammation by cytotoxic T-lymphocytes impairs retrograde axonal transport in an oligodendrocyte mutant mouse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Mice overexpressing proteolipid protein (PLP) develop a leukodystrophy-like disease involving cytotoxic, CD8+ T-lymphocytes. Here we show that these cytotoxic T-lymphocytes perturb retrograde axonal transport.

A growing field: The regulation of axonal regeneration by Wnt signaling

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2018
The canonical Wnt/β-catenin pathway is a highly conserved signaling cascade that plays critical roles during embryogenesis. Wnt ligands regulate axonal extension, growth cone guidance and synaptogenesis throughout the developing central nervous system ...

Injury-Transplantation Interval-Dependent Amelioration of Axonal Degeneration and Motor Deficit in Rats with Penetrating Traumatic Brain Injury

open access: yesNeurotrauma Reports, 2023
Penetrating traumatic brain injury (pTBI) is increasingly survivable, but permanently disabling as adult mammalian nervous system does not regenerate. Recently, our group demonstrated transplant location-dependent neuroprotection and safety of clinical ...

Inhibiting store-operated calcium entry attenuates white matter secondary degeneration following SCI

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2020
Axonal degeneration plays a key role in the pathogenesis of numerous neurological disorders including spinal cord injury. After the irreversible destruction of the white matter elements during the primary (mechanical) injury, spared axons and their ...

Direct and specific assessment of axonal injury and spinal cord microenvironments using diffusion correlation imaging

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2020
We describe a practical two-dimensional (2D) diffusion MRI framework to deliver specificity and improve sensitivity to axonal injury in the spinal cord.

Rapid and Reversible Development of Axonal Varicosities: A New Form of Neural Plasticity

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021
Axonal varicosities are enlarged, heterogeneous structures along axonal shafts, profoundly affecting axonal conduction and synaptic transmission. They represent a key pathological feature believed to develop via slow accumulation of axonal damage that ...

Immediate induction of varicosities by transverse compression but not uniaxial stretch in axon mechanosensation

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2022
Uniaxial stretch is believed to drive diffuse axonal injury (DAI) in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). Axonal varicosities are enlarged structures along axonal shafts and represent a hallmark feature of DAI.
