Chick PTPσ regulates the targeting of retinal axons within the optic tectum [PDF]
, 2002 Chick PTP (cPTP), also known as CRYP, is a receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase found on axons and growth cones. Putative ligands for cPTP are distributed within basement membranes and on glial end feet of the retina, optic nerve, and optic tectum,

Functional repair of the corticospinal tract by delayed transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells in adult rats [PDF]
, 2003 Adult rats were trained to use their forepaws to retrieve a piece of food. Destruction of the dorsal corticospinal tract on one side at the level of the first cervical segment abolished the use of the ipsilateral forepaw for retrieval for at least 6 ...

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.

Changes in excitability and accommodation of human motor axons following brief periods of ischaemia. [PDF]
, 1991 1. The mechanism of post-ischaemic ectopic impulse generation in nerve is not known, and previous measurements of excitability changes in human motor axons have appeared to conflict.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective In multiple sclerosis, the optimal time for deploying a therapeutic intervention is before the central nervous system is damaged; given the success of trials treating the earliest stage of MS, the radiologically isolated syndrome, developing primary prevention strategies is an important next challenge.

Activity-dependent excitability changes in normal and demyelinated rat spinal root axons [PDF]
, 1985 Myelinated nerve fibres with a reduced safety factor for conduction due to demyelination are easily blocked by trains of impulses. To find out why, in vivo recordings from rat ventral root fibres demyelinated with diphtheria toxin have been supplemented ...

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy due to Biallelic Pathogenic Variants in PIGM
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective PIGM encodes a critical enzyme in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐anchor biosynthesis pathway. While promoter‐region mutations in PIGM have been associated with a relatively mild phenotype characterized by portal vein thrombosis and absence seizures, recent evidence suggests that coding‐region mutations result in a more severe

Requirement for Slit-1 and Robo-2 in zonal segregation of olfactory sensory neuron axons in the main olfactory bulb [PDF]
, 2007 The formation of precise stereotypic connections in sensory systems is critical for the ability to detect and process signals from the environment. In the olfactory system, olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) project axons to spatially defined glomeruli ...

Particular aspects of myelin-axon interactions in health and disease : the expression of myelin-associated glycoprotein isoforms in CNS and PNS. Early axonal pathology in the dysmyelinating peripheral neuropathy CMT1A [PDF]
, 2007 An intact myelin sheath is crucial for the rapid propagation of action potentials along myelinated axons. There are many neurodegenerative diseases associated with defect myelin sheaths resulting in severe clinical symptoms such as multiple sclerosis ...
