Voluntary running delays primary degeneration in rat retinas after partial optic nerve transection
Running is believed to be beneficial for human health. Many studies have focused on the neuroprotective effects of voluntary running on animal models. There were both primary and secondary degeneration in neurodegenerative diseases, including glaucoma ...

Epigenetics in glaucoma: a link between histone methylation and neurodegeneration
Normal-tension glaucoma is a form of optic nerve degeneration that is characterized by loss of retinal ganglion cells independent of eye pressure elevation. In this issue of the JCI, Pan et al.

Role of Dectin-1 in peripheral nerve injury
Dectin-1, a C-type lectin receptor, plays a role in nerve injury in the central nervous system. However, whether it plays a role in the peripheral nervous system is not well understood.

ErbB2 signaling in Schwann cells is mostly dispensable for maintenance of myelinated peripheral nerves and proliferation of adult Schwann cells after injury [PDF]
Neuregulin/erbB signaling is critically required for survival and proliferation of Schwann cells as well as for establishing correct myelin thickness of peripheral nerves during development.

Critical signaling pathways during Wallerian degeneration of peripheral nerve
Wallerian degeneration is a critical biological process that occurs in distal nerve stumps after nerve injury. To systematically investigate molecular changes underlying Wallerian degeneration, we used a rat sciatic nerve transection model to examine ...
