Neurofibromatosis type 1: Modeling CNS dysfunction [PDF]

, 2012
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is the most common monogenic disorder in which individuals manifest central nervous system (CNS) abnormalities. Affected individuals develop glial neoplasms (optic gliomas, malignant astrocytomas) and neuronal dysfunction ...

Production of 3D printed biomodels of the canine brain for veterinary neuroanatomy teaching

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Teaching neuroanatomy presents multiple challenges to both students and teachers, as it is a subject with highly dense content that commonly causes the development of aversion by students, a phenomenon referred to as “neurophobia,” which has been documented in human and veterinary medicine students.

“Hands‐On” white matter anatomy: Using Air Anatomy gestures and tractography on simple brain sections to enhance teaching of white matter directions

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Teaching white matter (WM) anatomy to undergraduates is challenging. This is partly because WM fibers are oriented intricately and Klingler's dissection, the gold standard method used to demonstrate it, often requires time, advanced anatomical knowledge, and refined dissection skills.

Calcium retinoate nanoparticle mediated microglial polarization to regulate inflammatory microenvironment for therapy of neuroinflammatory disease

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A nano‐drug based on retinoic acid and calcium is developed, which can be rapily endocytosed by microglia and decomposed into small molecule/ion storms in lysosomes. This nano‐drug regulates microglial phenotype switching from M1 to M2 while indirectly guiding neuronal differentiation of endogenous neural stem cells, thereby ameliorating ...

Biomaterial design strategies for enhancing mitochondrial transplantation therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Biomaterials to facilitate mitochondrial transplantation therapy: biomaterials as barriers to protect mitochondria from pathophysiological microenvironments, like osmotic stress caused by the excessive concentration of calcium ion, reactive oxygen species, and advanced glycation end products; biomaterials integrating with biochemical cues to improve ...
