Efficiency of endoneural stimulation with 5- to 24-fold multielectrodes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Optimal selective stimulation of nerve with endoneurally (intrafascicularly) inserted multi-microelectrodes means that each electrode activates, with its own threshold stimulation current, as few distinct motoneurons as possible, preferably only one, If ...

Reinnervation of spinal cord anterior horn cells after median nerve repair using transposition with other nerves

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2019
Our previous studies have confirmed that during nerve transposition repair to injured peripheral nerves, the regenerated nerve fibers of motor neurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord can effectively repair distal nerve and target muscle tissue ...

Immune activation enhances epithelial nerve growth in provoked vestibulodynia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: Provoked vestibulodynia manifests as allodynia of the vulvar vestibular mucosa. The exact mechanisms that result in altered pain sensation are unknown.

Accumulation of Cav3.2 T-type Calcium Channels in the Uninjured Sural Nerve Contributes to Neuropathic Pain in Rats with Spared Nerve Injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Injuries to peripheral nerve fibers induce neuropathic pain. But the involvement of adjacent uninjured fibers to pain is not fully understood. The present study aims to investigate the possible contribution of Cav3.2 T-type calcium channels in uninjured ...

Sympathetic Nerve Fibers in Human Cervical and Thoracic Vagus Nerves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background Vagus nerve stimulation therapy (VNS) has been used for chronic heart failure (CHF), and is believed to improve imbalance of autonomic control by increasing parasympathetic activity.

Neuro-anatomical evidence indicating indirect modulation of macrophages by vagal efferents in the intestine but not in the spleen. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND: Electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve suppresses intestinal inflammation and normalizes gut motility in a mouse model of postoperative ileus.

Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy on the Distribution of Neural Nitric Oxide Synthase (nNOS)-immunoreactive Nerves in the Chicken Harderian Gland

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2005
Nitrergic innervation of the chicken Harderian gland was investigated by using immunohistochemistry for neural nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) and a confocal laser scanning microscope.

Neurotrophin-3-enhanced nerve regeneration selectively improves recovery of muscle fibers expressing myosin heavy chains 2b [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of neurotrophin 3 (NT-3) enhanced nerve regeneration on the reinnervation of a target muscle. Muscle fibers can be classified according to their mechanical properties and myosin heavy chain (MHC ...

3D bio-printed living nerve-like fibers refine the ecological niche for long-distance spinal cord injury regeneration

open access: yesBioactive Materials, 2023
3D bioprinting holds great promise toward fabricating biomimetic living constructs in a bottom-up assembly manner. To date, various emergences of living constructs have been bioprinted for in vitro applications, while the conspicuous potential serving ...

A novel flexible nerve guidance conduit promotes nerve regeneration while providing excellent mechanical properties

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
Autografting is the gold standard for surgical repair of nerve defects > 5 mm in length; however, autografting is associated with potential complications at the nerve donor site. As an alternative, nerve guidance conduits may be used.
