Factors Within the Endoneurial Microenvironment Act to Suppress Tumorigenesis of MPNST
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018 Background: Deciphering avenues to adequately control malignancies in the peripheral nerve will reduce the need for current, largely-ineffective, standards of care which includes the use of invasive, nerve-damaging, resection surgery.

Proximal Planar Cech Nerves. An Approach to Approximating the Shapes of Irregular, Finite, Bounded Planar Regions [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 This article introduces proximal Cech nerves and Cech complexes, restricted to finite, bounded regions $K$ of the Euclidean plane. A Cech nerve is a collection of intersecting balls. A Cech complex is a collection of nerves that cover $K$. Cech nerves are proximal, provided the nerves are close to each other, either spatially or descriptively.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.In this study, how friction‐welding parameters (rotational speed, etc.) affect the morphology, distribution, and local thickness of the intermetallic compound layer (IMC‐layer) in friction‐welded steel‐aluminum hybrid components is investigated. In the results, it is shown that lower speeds (700 rpm) lead to a more uniform, thinner IMC‐layer (<0.5 μm),

Neural Regeneration Research, 2019 After peripheral nerve injury, intraperitoneal injection of folic acid improves axon quantity, increases axon density and improves electromyography results. However, the mechanisms for this remain unclear.

Hypoxia-inducible factor 1a protects peripheral sensory neurons from diabetic peripheral neuropathy by suppressing accumulation of reactive oxygen species [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is one of the most common diabetic complications. Mechanisms underlying nerve damage and sensory loss following metabolic dysfunction remain large unclear. Recently, hyperglycemia-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and the generation of ROS have gained attention as possible mechanisms of organ damage in diabetes ...

Current Trends and Future Perspective for Cold Spray Metal‐Ceramic Composites
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The use of cold spray (CS) technology for creating cermet deposits, combining ceramic and metallic components, is advancing rapidly. Cermets offer excellent temperature handling and erosion resistance for diverse applications. This review outlines the current state of the art, focusing on the deposition dynamics and strategies to optimize the ...

A Computational Model of the Electrically or Acoustically Evoked Compound Action Potential in Cochlear Implant Users with Residual Hearing [PDF]
Objective: In cochlear implant users with residual acoustic hearing, compound action potentials (CAPs) can be evoked by acoustic (aCAP) or electric (eCAP) stimulation and recorded through the electrodes of the implant. We propose a novel computational model to simulate aCAPs and eCAPs in humans, considering the interaction between combined electric ...

Impact of Surface Roughness on the Yield Drop of Hot‐Rolled AZX311 Mg Alloy
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Rough‐surfaced AZX311 Mg alloy samples have significantly lower yield strength than polished ones due to stress concentrators forming at V‐notch irregularities. Surface profilometry confirms higher Ra values for rough samples. Highest hardness values were observed near scratched surfaces, indicating strain localization effects near the rough surface ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study investigates the bond quality of co‐extruded aluminum–titanium hybrid profiles, focusing on the lateral angular co‐extrusion (LACE) process. It examines how heat treatments (HT) affect intermetallic phase formation, bond strength, and material properties.

A mixture theory-based finite element formulation for the study of biodegradation of poroelastic scaffolds [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 We derive a mixture theory-based mathematical model of the degradation of a poroelastic solid immersed in a fluid bath. The evolution of the solid's mechanical and transport properties are also modeled. The inspiration for the model is the study of the temporal evolution of biodegradable Tissue Engineered Nerve Guides (TENGs), which are surgical ...
