Demyelination and axonal preservation in a transgenic mouse model of Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It is widely thought that demyelination contributes to the degeneration of axons and, in combination with acute inflammatory injury, is responsible for progressive axonal loss and persistent clinical disability in inflammatory demyelinating disease.

Vitamin D Binding Protein, a Ligand of Integrin beta 1, Motivates Both Tumor Cells and Schwann Cells to Promote Perineural Invasion in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Group‐specific component protein (GC) promotes perineural invasion (PNI) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) by activating Schwann cell dedifferentiation and by enhancing tumor–Schwann cell chemoattraction, independently of vitamin D transport. Integrin β1 (ITGB1) functions as a GC receptor in both cancer cells and Schwann cells.

Neuroprotection and Axonal Regeneration via ECM‐Mimetic Nanofibers Incorporating Metal–Phenolic Network Nanoparticles Toward Spinal Cord Injury Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Metal–phenolic network (MPN) nanoparticles with neuroprotective functions are integrated into decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) to obtain biomimetic composite fibrous scaffold MPN@dECM NFs by electrospinning, which protects spared neurons from secondary degeneration by suppressing excitotoxicity and inflammation, and promotes directional ...

Repurposing of Chemokine Antagonists for Combined Phase‐Resolved Spinal Cord Injury Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) in mammals is accompanied by a massive cytokine storm in cerebrospinal fluid, mainly driven by CXCL1, IL‐6, and CCL2‐5. Sub‐acute phase is mostly associated with IL‐2, IL‐7, CCL22, and CX3CL1, whereas TNFα and IL17α permanently persists in CNS even weeks following SCI.

Ultra‐Efficient Kidney Stone Fragment Removal via Spinner‐Induced Synergistic Circulation and Spiral Flow

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Leveraging spinning‐induced localized suction, the spinner device enables ultra‐efficient removal of kidney stone fragments, capturing a larger quantity of fragments from distances exceeding 20 mm. The spinner significantly improves the efficiency and effectiveness of stone fragment removal by reducing operative time, increasing stone‐free rates, and ...

Recombinant Human Neuregulin1‐β1 Significantly Reduces Schwannoma Growth in Mice

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
rhNRGβ1‐Replacement‐Therapy: Under physiological conditions, NRGβ1 is expressed on axons (in orange), where it activates ERBB2 receptors, facilitating successful nerve regeneration following injury. However, loss of NF2 leads to a reduction in NRGβ1‐expression and increased ErbB2 levels on Schwann cells (in green), which contributes to schwannoma ...

Peptide/Antibody–Drug Conjugates for Therapeutic Applications in Inflammatory Disease

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Peptide/antibody–drug conjugates (PADCs) combine ligand specificity and cleavable linkers to deliver drugs precisely to disease sites with minimal toxicity. While current approvals focus on oncology, this review examines their untapped potential in inflammatory diseases, detailing mechanisms of targeted delivery and highlighting advances that position ...

An elastic segment of the whisker shaft enables coding of the whisking phase via whisker torsion in rats and mice

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
An elastic segment was found in the basal part of the whisker shaft in rats and mice. Application of force to the whisker bulb of isolated follicles caused bending and twisting of this segment. Active whisker movements deform this segment, causing whisker shaft deflection and selective activation of mechanoreceptors at different phases of whisking ...

Advanced Quantitative Microstructure Imaging in Autism: A Review of Methodology, Group Differences, and Associations With Developmental Outcomes

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Emerging evidence highlights widespread alterations in white matter microstructure in autism. Advances in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have enabled more precise examinations of these microstructural changes, leading to increased use of quantitative MRI techniques in autism research.
