Immunohistochemical localization of nerve fibers in the pseudocapsule of fibroids

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Histochemistry, 2014
The pseudocapsule surrounding fibroids consists of compressed myometrium  containing nerves and blood vessels that continue into adjacent myometrium. Oxytocin (OXT) is thought to affect wound healing after myomectomy.

Translational Considerations for Injectable Biomaterials and Bioscaffolds to Repair and Regenerate Brain Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The repair and regeneration of brain tissue faces both biological and technical challenges. Injectable bioscaffolds offer new opportunities to stimulate tissue regrowth in the brain by recruiting neural stem cells. Here, the translational issues are reviewed that need to be address to advance this promising new therapeutic approach from the bench to ...

Unmyelinated Nerve Fiber Analysis of the Human Abducent Nerve

open access: yesOkajimas Folia Anatomica Japonica, 1998
Unmyelinated nerve fibers of the abducent nerve have occasionally been observed with electron microscopes, but, to our knowledge, they have never been evaluated from the morphometric point of view. We analyzed the aging process of the unmyelinated nerve fibers in the human abducent nerve with the help of a new staining method suitable for morphometric ...

Targeting Post‐Irradiation Thyroid Dysfunction: Electrospun Scaffolds As A Dual‐Action Approach for Antioxidant and Immune Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Radiation‐induced hypothyroidism follows head and neck radiotherapy due to oxidative stress and inflammation. Electrospun polycaprolactone scaffolds containing adenosine have potential to modulate thyroid repair. Scaffolds enhance thyrocyte proliferation, antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase and catalase, reduce senescence and apoptosis markers ...

3-5b - Myelinated Nerve Fibers

open access: yes, 2012
Myelinated nerve fibers are frequently confused with papilledema. The feathery edge of the myelinated fibers that conceal the disc and vessel should provide the clue.

Nerves, fibers and homotopy groups

open access: yesJournal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 2003
A much used result of \textit{D. Quillen} [Adv. Math. 28, 101-128 (1978; Zbl 0388.55007)] is that a map of posets \(f:P\to Q\) with contractible fiber is a homotopy equivalence (simplicial complexes are associated to posets in the usual way). The first main result of the paper under review extends this by only requiring the map to be \(k\)-connected ...

Remyelination of nerve fibers in the transected frog sciatic nerve

open access: yesBrain Research, 1990
This project tests an important aspect of the cellular events controlling the processes of recovery of function and remyelination that follow demyelination in the peripheral nervous system. Frog sciatic nerves have been shown to survive and remain functional for up to 10 days following transection.

The role of activated partial thrombin time in mediating the impact of poorly glycemic control on diabetic peripheral neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
AimThis study aims to investigate the role of activated partial thrombin time (APTT) as a potential mediator in the relationship between suboptimal glycemic control and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus ...

Co‐Electrospinning Extracellular Matrix with Polycaprolactone Enables a Modular Approach to Balance Bioactivity and Mechanics of a Multifunctional Bone Wrap

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The incorporation of nondigested ECM and synthetic polymers into a co‐electrospinning system enables the decoupling of bioactivity and mechanical properties within a single wrap. This technique is used to develop a multifunctional bone wrap that achieves augmented membrane durability, sustained infection control, and enhanced vascularity for use in ...
