The nuclear events guiding successful nerve regeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2011
Peripheral nervous system (PNS) neurons survive and regenerate after nerve injury, whereas central nervous system (CNS) neurons lack the capacity to do so.

Development of a nerve stretcher for in vivo stretching of nerve fibres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Axons in vitro respond to mechanical stimulus and can be stretched mechanically to increase their rate of growth. This type of accelerated growth under the influence of tensile forces alone appears independent of chemical cues and growth cones.

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Influence of the complex drug Cocarnit on the sciatic nerve in the development of diabetic polyneuropathy in rats

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Pharmacy and Medical Sciences, 2020
Ulcers and slow wound healing are common in diabetic polyneuropathy (DP), as well as shooting or burning pain, sensitivity to touch or lack of sensitivity, low oxygenation of nerve tissue, conductivity disorders and various vascular disorders.

Somatostatin receptor 4 (SSTR4) is a tumor suppressor in cutaneous and head & neck squamous cell carcinomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies somatostatin receptor 4 (Sstr4) as a critical tumor suppressor against skin and head/neck cancers (HNSCC, cSCC, and BCC). The loss of Sstr4 removes a check on cell growth, causing hyperactivation of the MAPK‐ERK signaling pathway (↑).

Transforming growth factor beta–related proteins promote axonal regeneration of injured dorsal root ganglion neurons

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
Dorsal root ganglia neurons gradually lose their axonal regeneration ability during development and aging. To explore molecules that enhance axonal regeneration, we screened growth factors with differential gene expression patterns in the dorsal root ...

Review: Bioengineering approach for the repair and regeneration of peripheral nerve

open access: yesBioactive Materials, 2019
Complex craniofacial surgeries of damaged tissues have several limitations, which present complications and challenges when trying to replicate facial function and structure.

Nerve Growth Factor and Pain Mechanisms

open access: yesAnnual Review of Neuroscience, 2017
Nerve growth factor (NGF) antagonism is on the verge of becoming a powerful analgesic treatment for numerous conditions, including osteoarthritis and lower back pain. This review summarizes the historical research, both fundamental and clinical, that led to our current understanding of NGF biology.

The VHL tumor suppressor at the crossroad of protein folding, aggregation, and cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Mutations, environmental stress, and chaperone dysfunction can destabilize pVHL, promoting its conversion from the native folded state into amyloid‐like assemblies. This transition may contribute to protein storage, cell dormancy, survival, and drug resistance.

Unaltered low nerve growth factor and high brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels in plasma from patients with fibromyalgia after a 15-week progressive resistance exercise

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2019
Background: The pathophysiology of fibromyalgia includes central and peripheral factors. Neurotrophins, such as nerve growth factor and brain-derived neurotrophic factor, are involved in peripheral and central nervous system development of pain and ...
