Deep-learning segmentation of fascicles from microCT of the human vagus nerve

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
IntroductionMicroCT of the three-dimensional fascicular organization of the human vagus nerve provides essential data to inform basic anatomy as well as the development and optimization of neuromodulation therapies.

Do longus capitis and colli really stabilise the cervical spine? A study of their fascicular anatomy and peak force capabilities [PDF]

open access: yesMusculoskeletal Science and Practice, 2017
Longus capitis and colli are proposed to play a role in stabilising the cervical spine, targeted in clinical and research practice with cranio-cervical flexion. However, it is not clear if these muscles are anatomically or biomechanically suited to a stabilising role.To describe the fascicular morphology of the longus capitis and colli, and estimate ...

Automatic three-dimensional reconstruction of fascicles in peripheral nerves from histological images.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Computational studies can be used to support the development of peripheral nerve interfaces, but currently use simplified models of nerve anatomy, which may impact the applicability of simulation results.

Achilles Subtendon Structure and Behavior as Evidenced From Tendon Imaging and Computational Modeling

open access: yesFrontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2020
The Achilles tendon is the largest and strongest tendon in the human body and is essential for storing elastic energy and positioning the foot for walking and running. Recent research into Achilles tendon anatomy and mechanics has revealed the importance

Human distal sciatic nerve fascicular anatomy: Implications for ankle control using nerve-cuff electrodes

open access: yesThe Journal of Rehabilitation Research and Development, 2012
The design of neural prostheses to restore standing balance, prevent foot drop, or provide active propulsion during ambulation requires detailed knowledge of the distal sciatic nerve anatomy. Three complete sciatic nerves and branches were dissected from the piriformis to each muscle entry point to characterize the branching patterns and diameters ...

Complex spatial and temporally defined myelin and axonal degeneration in Huntington disease

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2018
Although much prior work has focused on the basal ganglia and cortical pathology that defines Huntington's disease (HD), recent studies have also begun to characterize cerebral white matter damage (Rosas et al., 2006; Dumas et al., 2012; Poudel et al ...

A Magneto‐Mechanically Activated Nerve Guidance Conduit Promotes Peripheral Nerve Regeneration via TIMP1‐Mediated Membrane Tension Transfer

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a magneto‐mechanical strategy that incorporates FP@MSCs into an aligned PCL/GelMA nerve guidance conduit. Magnetic stimulation increases membrane tension in FP@MSCs, triggering cytoskeletal remodeling, Schwann cell‐like differentiation, and TIMP1 secretion. TIMP1 activates ITGB1/CD63–FAK signaling in NE‐4C cells, increasing membrane

Bioengineered Interfaces for Peripheral Nerve Sensory Restoration

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Half of amputees abandon their prosthetics for lack of feeling. This review charts the full path from peripheral nerve injury to restored sensation, through surgical, regenerative, noninvasive, and implanted approaches, and shows how injury type and interface material properties determine which strategy can deliver naturalistic feedback, and why ...
