Exogenous nerve growth factor protects the hypoglossal nerve against crush injury
Studies have shown that sensory nerve damage can activate the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, but whether the same type of nerve injury after exercise activates the p38MAPK pathway remains unclear.

Imaging the hypoglossal nerve [PDF]
The hypoglossal nerve is a pure motor nerve. It provides motor control to the intrinsic and extrinsic tongue muscles thus being essential for normal tongue movement and coordination. In order to design a useful imaging approach and a working differential diagnosis in cases of hypoglossal nerve damage one has to have a good knowledge of the normal ...

Signalling mechanisms of long term facilitation of breathing with intermittent hypoxia. [PDF]
Intermittent hypoxia causes long-term facilitation (LTF) of respiratory motor nerve activity and ventilation, which manifests as a persistent increase over the normoxic baseline for an hour or more after the acute hypoxic ventilatory response.

Hypoglossal Nerve Palsy Due to a Sublingual Space Abscess
We report an unusual case of a hypoglossal nerve palsy secondary to a sublingual space abscess in a previously fit and healthy 59-year-old man. The patient presented with fever, dysphagia, trismus, and a left-sided tongue and floor-of-mouth swelling with

Localization of brain stem motoneurons innervating the laryngeal muscles in the rufous horseshoe bat,rhinolophus rouxi [PDF]
The motoneurons innervating the laryngeal muscles were localized in the rufous horseshoe bat,Rhinolophus rouxi, using the HRP method. HRP was applied to the cricothyroid muscle and to the cut end of the recurrent laryngeal nerve. Labeled motoneurons were

The first relatively complete exoccipital-opisthotic from the braincase of the Callovian pliosaur, Liopleurodon [PDF]
A newly recognized left exoccipital-opisthotic of a Callovian pliosaur, derived from the Peterborough or lower Stewarby Members of the Oxford Clay Formation of Peterborough, is described and figured.

Unilateral Hypoglossal Nerve Palsy: As the Only Presentation of Tuberculosis [PDF]
Tuberculous spondylitis is not an uncommon disease of the spine. Near one percent of all cases of spinal tuberculosis (TB) involves craniocervical junction.

The effects of age and ganglioside composition on the rate of motor nerve terminal regeneration following antibody-mediated injury in mice [PDF]
Gangliosides are glycosphingolipids highly enriched in neural plasma membranes, where they mediate a diverse range of functions and can act as targets for auto-antibodies present in human immune-mediated neuropathy sera.

Paleoneuroanatomy of the European lambeosaurine dinosaur Arenysaurus ardevoli [PDF]
The neuroanatomy of hadrosaurid dinosaurs is well known from North America and Asia. In Europe only a few cranial remains have been recovered that include the braincase. Arenysaurus is the first European endocast for which the paleoneuroanatomy has been

Neural circuit analysis of axons regenerated by facial–hypoglossal nerve cross-link surgery
Introduction: Several methods of nerve reconstruction for facial nerve palsy are known. Although the recently introduced method of “cross-linking” of the facial and hypoglossal nerves with a grafted nerve has proved efficacious, the underlying mechanism ...
