Silicon Nanowire Mats Enable Advanced Bioelectrical Recordings in Primary DRG Cell Cultures

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
SiNW mat‐based MEA (NW_MEA) enables continuous intracellular recordings from neurons in primary rat DRG cell cultures, identifying C‐fiber nociceptors. Supported by an astrocyte feeder layer, SiNW mat promotes DRG neuron and glial cell growth, preserving in vivo‐like cell characteristics and allowing drug‐modulated activity monitoring.

Dipolar extracellular potentials generated by axonal projections

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Extracellular field potentials (EFPs) are an important source of information in neuroscience, but their physiological basis is in many cases still a matter of debate.

Tensed axons are on fire

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
Already in the late 19th / early 20th century, neuroscientists such as Wilhelm His, Ross Granville Harrison, and Paul Weiss, discussed the role of mechanical signals in neuronal development (1-4). A few decades later, in two seminal papers, Dennis Bray showed that extending neuronal processes (‘neurites’) are under tension, and that the external ...

Biomimetic Scaffolds Enhance iPSC Astrocyte Progenitor Angiogenic, Immunomodulatory, and Neurotrophic Capacity in a Stiffness and Matrix‐Dependent Manner for Spinal Cord Repair Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Through tuning biomimetic scaffold stiffness and matrix composition the reparative capacity of astrocyte progenitors is enhanced. Soft, collagen‐IV/fibronectin‐functionalized scaffolds promote progenitor growth while improving angiogenic, immunomodulatory, and neurotrophic capacity in a stiffness and matrix‐dependent manner, demonstrating the impact of

Severity of Demyelinating and Axonal Neuropathy Mouse Models Is Modified by Genes Affecting Structure and Function of Peripheral Nodes

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of inherited polyneuropathies. Mutations in 80 genetic loci can cause forms of CMT, resulting in demyelination and axonal dysfunction.

Time-dependent diffusion in undulating structures: Impact on axon diameter estimation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Diffusion MRI may enable non-invasive mapping of axonal microstructure. Most approaches infer axon diameters from effects of time-dependent diffusion on the diffusion-weighted MR signal by modelling axons as straight cylinders. Axons do not, however, run in straight trajectories and so far, the impact of the axonal trajectory on diameter estimation has

One‐Shot Remote Integration of Macromolecular Synaptic Elements on a Chip for Ultrathin Flexible Neural Network System

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A novel one‐shot integration electropolymerization (OSIEP) method is developed as a breakthrough on the intricate photolithographic steps, enabling to compress all processes from synthesis to channel integration in one‐shot manufacturing. The specially designed dual bipolar electrodes provide the targeted depositions of poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene)

Topologically Restricted Appearance in the Developing Chick Retinotectal System of Bravo, a Neural Surface Protein: Experimental Modulation by Environmental Cues [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
A novel neural surface protein, Bravo, shows a pattern of topological restriction in the embryonic chick retinotectal system. Bravo is present on the developing optic fibers in the retina; however, retinal axons in the tectum do not display Bravo.

Optoelectronic Devices for In‐Sensor Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The raw data obtained directly from sensors in the noisy analogue domain is often unstructured, which lacks a predefined format or organization and does not conform to a specific data model. Optoelectronic devices for in‐sensor visual processing can integrate perception, memory, and processing functions in the same physical units, which can compress ...
