Successful use of axonal transport for drug delivery by synthetic molecular vehicles [PDF]
We report the use of axonal transport to achieve intraneural drug delivery. We constructed a novel tripartite complex of an axonal transport facilitator conjugated to a linker molecule bearing up to a hundred reversibly attached drug molecules.

4‐Aminopyridine promotes functional recovery and remyelination in acute peripheral nerve injury
Traumatic peripheral nerve damage is a major medical problem without effective treatment options. In repurposing studies on 4‐aminopyridine (4‐AP), a potassium channel blocker that provides symptomatic relief in some chronic neurological afflictions, we ...

1. The efficacy of the oxime HLö-7 and currently used oximes (pralidoxime, obidoxime, HI-6) to reactivate acetylcholinesterase inhibited by various nerve agents (sarin, tabun, cyclosarin, VX) was tested by in vitro methods. 2. Both H oximes (HLö-7, HI-6)

Female rats are less susceptible during puberty to the lethal effects of percutaneous exposure to VX
Nerve agents with low volatility such as VX are primarily absorbed through the skin when released during combat or a terrorist attack. The barrier function of the stratum corneum may be compromised during certain stages of development, allowing VX to ...

Conditioned place preference reveals ongoing pain in calves 3 weeks after disbudding. [PDF]
Hot-iron disbudding, a routine procedure that prevents horn bud growth through cauterization, is painful for calves. The resulting burns remain sensitive to touch for weeks, but it is unknown whether calves experience ongoing, non-evoked pain.
