Neural Regeneration ResearchSpinal cord injury typically causes corticospinal tract disruption. Although the disrupted corticospinal tract can self-regenerate to a certain degree, the underlying mechanism of this process is still unclear.

The Cortical “Upper Motoneuron” in Health and Disease
Brain Sciences, 2021 Upper motoneurons (UMNs) in motor areas of the cerebral cortex influence spinal and cranial motor mechanisms through the corticospinal tract (CST) and through projections to brainstem motor pathways.

Dissociation of structural and functional integrities of the motor system in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and behavioral-variant frontotemporal dementia [PDF]
, 2016 Background and Purpose: This study investigated the structural and functional changes in the motor system in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS; n=25) and behavioral-variant fronto-temporal dementia (bvFTD; n=17) relative to healthy controls (n=37 ...

Assessing Corticospinal Tract Asymmetry in Unilateral Polymicrogyria [PDF]
American Journal of Neuroradiology, 2018 Asymmetry of the corticospinal tract in congenital lesions is a good prognostic marker for preserved motor function after hemispherectomy. This study aimed to assess this marker and provide a clinically feasible approach in selected cases of unilateral polymicrogyria.Corticospinal tract asymmetry of 9 patients with unilateral polymicrogyria ...

Motor pathway degeneration in young ataxia telangiectasia patients: A diffusion tractography study
NeuroImage: Clinical, 2015 Background: Our understanding of the effect of ataxia–telangiectasia mutated gene mutations on brain structure and function is limited. In this study, white matter motor pathway integrity was investigated in ataxia telangiectasia patients using diffusion

Motor Evoked Potentials Improve Targeting in Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery
Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021 Abstract Objectives One of the main challenges posed by the surgical deep brain stimulation (DBS) procedure is the successful targeting of the structures of interest and avoidance of side effects, especially in asleep surgery. Here, intraoperative motor evoked potentials (MEPs) might serve as tool to identify the pyramidal tract.

Transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells into spinal cord lesions restores breathing and climbing [PDF]
, 2003 One of the most devastating effects of damage to the upper spinal cord is the loss of the ability to breathe; patients suffering these injuries can be kept alive only with assisted ventilation. No known method for repairing these injuries exists.
