After chronic constriction injury (CCI), leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) is transported from the distal injury site to dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons and promotes the expression of ECEL1, thereby promoting sympathetic sprouting and causing neuropathic pain. ABSTRACT Aims This study is to investigate the role of Endothelin‐converting enzyme‐like 1 (

Vesicular glutamate release from central axons contributes to myelin damage [PDF]
Neuronal activity can lead to vesicular release of glutamate. Here the authors demonstrate that vesicular release of glutamate occurs in axons during ischemic conditions, and that an allosteric modulator of GluN2C/D is protective in models of ischemic ...

Curcumin Promotes the Recovery of Motor Function After Brachial Plexus Avulsion Injury in Rats
CUR promotes the recovery of motor function in rats after BPRA by inhibiting inflammation, promoting axonal remyelination, and reducing muscle atrophy, laying a foundation for the treatment of BPRA with CUR. ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Brachial plexus root avulsion (BPRA) often results in the loss of upper limb motor function.

Localization of axonally transported 125I-wheat germ agglutinin beneath the plasma membrane of chick retinal ganglion cells. [PDF]
The distribution of 125I-wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) transported by axons of chick retinal ganglion cells to layer d of the optic tectum was studied by electron microscopic autoradiography.

Pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or motor neuron disease is a rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disorder. The primary involvement is of motor neurons in the brain, spinal cord and peripherally. There is secondary weakness of muscles

ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Fibromyalgia (FM) is a complex condition with unclear pathophysiology. While central sensitization is commonly accepted as the predominant cause of pain symptoms, numerous evidences suggest a role for the peripheral nervous system, particularly small fiber neuropathy.

The unusual microtubule polarity in teleost retinal pigment epithelial cells. [PDF]
In cells of the teleost retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), melanin granules disperse into the RPE cells long apical projections in response to light onset, and aggregate toward the base of the RPE cell in response to dark onset.

Imaging of the Lamina Cribrosa using Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography. [PDF]
The lamina cribrosa (LC) is the presumed site of axonal injury in glaucoma. Its deformation has been suggested to contribute to optic neuropathy by impeding axoplasmic flow within the optic nerve fibers, leading to apoptosis of retinal ganglion cells. To

ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Early detection of peripheral nerve damage in patients with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRv) has become essential for the prompt initiation of effective, recently approved therapies. In our study, we propose a new variable echo time (vTE) MRI sequence as a non‐invasive method to detect nerve injury in ATTRv ...
