Interfacing peripheral nerve with macro-sieve electrodes following spinal cord injury [PDF]
, 2017 Macro-sieve electrodes were implanted in the sciatic nerve of five adult male Lewis rats following spinal cord injury to assess the ability of the macro-sieve electrode to interface regenerated peripheral nerve fibers post-spinal cord injury. Each spinal

Polarimetric imaging of the human brain to determine the orientation and degree of alignment of nerve fiber bundles [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 More children and adults under the age of 40 die of brain tumor than from any other cancer. Brain surgery constitutes the first and decisive step for the treatment of such tumors. It is extremely crucial to achieve complete tumor resection during surgery, however, this is a highly challenging task, as it is very difficult to visually differentiate ...

Immunohistochemical evidence for the presence of a vasoactive intestinal peptide, neuropeptide Y and substance P in rat adrenal medulla after heat stress [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2012 Immunohistochemistry revealed the presence of VIP-, NPY- and SP-immunoreactivity in the rat adrenal medulla. VIP- and NPY-immunoreactivity was detected in chromaffin and ganglion cells and in nerve fibers, but SP-immunoreactivity was found only in ...

Self-Supervised Representation Learning for Nerve Fiber Distribution Patterns in 3D-PLI [PDF]
A comprehensive understanding of the organizational principles in the human brain requires, among other factors, well-quantifiable descriptors of nerve fiber architecture. Three-dimensional polarized light imaging (3D-PLI) is a microscopic imaging technique that enables insights into the fine-grained organization of myelinated nerve fibers with high ...

Clues from Crouzon: Insights into the potential role of growth factors in the pathogenesis of myelinated retinal nerve fibers. [PDF]
, 2016 PurposeWe present a case of bilateral extensive peripapillary myelinated retinal nerve fibers (MRNF) in an individual with Crouzon syndrome, an inherited form of craniosynostosis caused by overactivation of fibroblast growth factor receptor 2.

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2018 Aims: Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is characterized by chronic debilitating pain disproportional to the inciting event and accompanied by motor, sensory, and autonomic disturbances. The pathophysiology of CRPS remains elusive.

Acetylcholine receptors in regenerating muscle accumulate at original synaptic sites in the absence of the nerve. [PDF]
, 1979 We examined the role of nerve terminals in organizing acetylcholine receptors on regenerating skeletal-muscle fibers. When muscle fibers are damaged, they degenerate and are phagocytized, but their basal lamina sheaths survive.

Research progress of the diagnosis of small fiber neuropathy
Chinese Journal of Contemporary Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2017 Small fiber neuropathy (SFN) is a kind of peripheral neuropathy in which the thinly myelinated A δ fibers and unmyelinated C fibers are predominantly affected, characterized by allodynia, analgesia, thermoanesthesia and/or autonomic nerve dysfunction ...
