Artificial nerve graft constructed by coculture of activated Schwann cells and human hair keratin for repair of peripheral nerve defects

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2023
Studies have shown that human hair keratin (HHK) has no antigenicity and excellent mechanical properties. Schwann cells, as unique glial cells in the peripheral nervous system, can be induced by interleukin-1β to secrete nerve growth factor, which ...

In vitro study of decellularized rat tissues for nerve regeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
Peripheral nerve injuries cause an absence or destruction of nerves. Decellularized nerves, acting as a replacement for autografts, have been investigated in the promotion of nerve repair and regeneration, always being incorporated with stem cells or ...

Aligned PCL Fiber Conduits Immobilized with Nerve Growth Factor Gradients Enhance and Direct Sciatic Nerve Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, 2020
Topographical guidance and chemotaxis are crucial factors for peripheral nerve regeneration. This study describes the preparation of highly aligned poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) fiber conduits coated with a concentration gradient of nerve growth factor (NGF)

Coxeter systems with $2$-dimensional Davis complexes, growth rates and Perron numbers [PDF]

open access: yesAlgebr. Geom. Topol. 24 (2024) 1787-1808, 2022
In this paper, we study growth rates of Coxeter systems with Davis complexes of dimension at most $2$. We show that if the Euler characteristic $\chi$ of the nerve of a Coxeter system is vanishing (resp. positive), then its growth rate is a Salem (resp. a Pisot) number. In this way, we extend results due to Floyd and Parry. Moreover, in the case where $

The role of the vagus nerve during fetal development and its relationship with the environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) regulatory capacity begins before birth as the sympathetic and parasympathetic activity contributes significantly to the fetus' development. Several studies have shown how vagus nerve is involved in many vital processes during fetal, perinatal and postnatal life: from the regulation of inflammation through the anti ...

Polydopamine-modified chitin conduits with sustained release of bioactive peptides enhance peripheral nerve regeneration in rats

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2022
[INLINE:1] The introduction of neurotrophic factors into injured peripheral nerve sites is beneficial to peripheral nerve regeneration. However, neurotrophic factors are rapidly degraded in vivo and obstruct axonal regeneration when used at a ...

Exosomes Derived From Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells Treat Cutaneous Nerve Damage and Promote Wound Healing

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
Wound repair is a key step in the treatment of skin injury caused by burn, surgery, and trauma. Various stem cells have been proven to promote wound healing and skin regeneration as candidate seed cells.

Role of neurotrophic factors in enhancing linear axonal growth of ganglionic sensory neurons in vitro

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2020
Neurotrophins play a major role in the regulation of neuronal growth such as neurite sprouting or regeneration in response to nerve injuries. The role of nerve growth factor, neurotrophin-3, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor in maintaining the ...

Scattered Light Imaging: Resolving the substructure of nerve fiber crossings in whole brain sections with micrometer resolution [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroImage 233, 117952 (2021), 2020
For developing a detailed network model of the brain based on image reconstructions, it is necessary to spatially resolve crossing nerve fibers. The accuracy hereby depends on many factors, including the spatial resolution of the imaging technique. 3D Polarized Light Imaging (3D-PLI) allows the three-dimensional reconstruction of nerve fiber tracts in ...
