Antidromic Spike Propagation and Dissimilar Expression of P2X, 5-HT, and TRPV1 Channels in Peripheral vs. Central Sensory Axons in Meninges [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021
Background: The terminal branches of the trigeminal nerve in meninges are supposed to be the origin site of migraine pain. The main function of these peripheral sensory axons is the initiation and propagation of spikes in the orthodromic direction to the

MENINGES HARBOR CELLS EXPRESSING NEURAL PRECURSOR MARKERS DURING DEVELOPMENT AND ADULTHOOD [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Brain and skull developments are tightly synchronized, allowing the cranial bones to dynamically adapt to the brain shape. At the brain-skull interface, meninges produce the trophic signals necessary for normal corticogenesis and bone development ...

Human and nonhuman primate meninges harbor lymphatic vessels that can be visualized noninvasively by MRI

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Here, we report the existence of meningeal lymphatic vessels in human and nonhuman primates (common marmoset monkeys) and the feasibility of noninvasively imaging and mapping them in vivo with high-resolution, clinical MRI.

Living on the Edge of the CNS: Meninges Cell Diversity in Health and Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021
The meninges are the fibrous covering of the central nervous system (CNS) which contain vastly heterogeneous cell types within its three layers (dura, arachnoid, and pia).

Mechanical Characterization and Modeling of the Porcine Cerebral Meninges

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
The cerebral meninges, made up of the dura, arachnoid, and pia mater, is a tri-layer membrane that surrounds the brain and the spinal cord and has an important function in protecting the brain from injury.

Skull and vertebral bone marrow are myeloid cell reservoirs for the meninges and CNS parenchyma

open access: greenScience, 2021
Getting around the blood–brain barrier The meninges comprise three membranes that surround and protect the central nervous system (CNS). Recent studies have noted the existence of myeloid cells resident there, but little is known about their ontogeny and

Cholinergic Nociceptive Mechanisms in Rat Meninges and Trigeminal Ganglia: Potential Implications for Migraine Pain

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2017
BackgroundParasympathetic innervation of meninges and ability of carbachol, acetylcholine (ACh) receptor (AChR) agonist, to induce headaches suggests contribution of cholinergic mechanisms to primary headaches.

The roles of immune factors in neurodevelopment [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
The development of the nervous system is a highly complex process orchestrated by a multitude of factors, including various immune elements. These immune components play a dual role, not only regulating the immune response but also actively influencing ...

A cellular atlas of the developing meninges reveals meningeal fibroblast diversity and function [PDF]

open access: greenbioRxiv, 2019
The meninges, a multilayered structure that encases the CNS, is composed mostly of fibroblasts, along with vascular and immune cells. Meningeal fibroblasts are a vital source of signals that control neuronal migration and neurogenesis yet strikingly ...

Diagnostic performance of contrast-enhanced T2-FLAIR MRI in the detection of meningitis [PDF]

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Radiology
Background: The contrast-enhanced T2-FLAIR (CE-T2-FLAIR) sequence on MRI, through the suppression of CSF and vascular signals, can detect subtle meningeal enhancement in meningitis that may not be appreciable on the routinely used contrast-enhanced T1W ...
