The relationship between nerve conduction velocity and fiber morphology during peripheral nerve regeneration

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, 2012
We analyzed the relationship between motor nerve conduction velocity (MCV) and morphological changes in regenerating nerve fibers at different times after sciatic nerve transection to identify reliable indices of functional recovery.

Glial βii spectrin contributes to paranode formation and maintenance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Action potential conduction along myelinated axons depends on high densities of voltage-gated Na channels at the nodes of Ranvier. Flanking each node, paranodal junctions (paranodes) are formed between axons and Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous ...

A study of retrograde degeneration of median nerve forearm segment in carpal tunnel syndrome of variable severities

open access: yesAlexandria Journal of Medicine, 2014
Introduction: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a disorder of the hand which results from compression of the median nerve within its fibro-osseous tunnel at the wrist. The slowing in the forearm motor conduction velocity suggests the presence of retrograde

Changes in extracellular pH during electrical stimulation of isolated rat vagus nerve [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Double-barrelled pH-sensitive micro-electrodes were used to record changes of extracellular pH during repetitive stimulation of isolated rat vagus nerves. It was found that a small initial alkaline shift was followed by a prolonged acidification.

GABA increases electrical excitability in a subset of human unmyelinated peripheral axons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A proportion of small diameter primary sensory neurones innervating human skin are chemosensitive. They respond in a receptor dependent manner to chemical mediators of inflammation as well as naturally occurring algogens, thermogens and pruritogens.

Effect on signal-to-noise ratio of splitting the continuous contacts of cuff electrodes into smaller recording areas. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BackgroundCuff electrodes have been widely used chronically in different clinical applications. This neural interface has been dominantly used for nerve stimulation while interfering noise is the major issue when employed for recording purposes ...

Effect of walking and resting after three cryotherapy modalities on the recovery of sensory and motor nerve conduction velocity in healthy subjects.

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Physical Therapy, 2011
BACKGROUND Different cryotherapy modalities have distinct effects on sensory and motor nerve conduction parameters. However, it is unclear how these parameters change during the post-cooling period and how the exercise carried out in this period would ...

Nerve Conduction Through Dendrites via Proton Hopping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: In our previous studies of nerve conduction conducted by proton hopping, we have considered the axon, soma, synapse and the nodes of Ranvier.
