Progranulin contributes to endogenous mechanisms of pain defense after nerve injury in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Progranulin haploinsufficiency is associated with frontotemporal dementia in humans. Deficiency of progranulin led to exaggerated inflammation and premature aging in mice.

The Success and Failure of the Schwann Cell Response to Nerve Injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
The remarkable plasticity of Schwann cells allows them to adopt the Remak (non-myelin) and myelin phenotypes, which are specialized to meet the needs of small and large diameter axons, and differ markedly from each other.

Mechanistic Role of Reactive Oxygen Species and Therapeutic Potential of Antioxidants in Denervation- or Fasting-Induced Skeletal Muscle Atrophy

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Skeletal muscle atrophy occurs under various conditions, such as disuse, denervation, fasting, aging, and various diseases. Although the underlying molecular mechanisms are still not fully understood, skeletal muscle atrophy is closely associated with ...

Interfacing peripheral nerve with macro-sieve electrodes following spinal cord injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Macro-sieve electrodes were implanted in the sciatic nerve of five adult male Lewis rats following spinal cord injury to assess the ability of the macro-sieve electrode to interface regenerated peripheral nerve fibers post-spinal cord injury. Each spinal

Comparative intra- and inter-observer reliability of two methods for evaluating intraoperative ultrasonography-based spinal cord hyperechogenicity intensity in degenerative cervical myelopathy

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2022
Objectives During French-door laminoplasty, a linear array transducer of IOUS was used to observe and record the spinal cord decompression. To acquire a higher-reliability method, and compare the in-observer and inter-observer reliability of two methods ...

ATF3 upregulation in glia during Wallerian degeneration: differential expression in peripheral nerves and CNS white matter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Background: Many changes in gene expression occur in distal stumps of injured nerves but the transcriptional control of these events is poorly understood.

Mechanisms of Schwann cell plasticity involved in peripheral nerve repair after injury

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2020
The great plasticity of Schwann cells (SCs), the myelinating glia of the peripheral nervous system (PNS), is a critical feature in the context of peripheral nerve regeneration following traumatic injuries and peripheral neuropathies. After a nerve damage,

Hyaluronic acid ameliorates intervertebral disc degeneration via promoting mitophagy activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Activation of mitophagy was considered to be a potential therapeutic strategy for intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). There was evidence suggesting that hyaluronic acid (HA) can protect mitochondria from oxidative stress in chondrocytes, but its ...

The success of biomaterial-based tissue engineering strategies for peripheral nerve regeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Peripheral nerve injury is a clinically common injury that causes sensory dysfunction and locomotor system degeneration, which seriously affects the quality of the patients’ daily life.

Apoptotic gene expression in neuropathic pain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Pain initiated or caused by a primary lesion or dysfunction in the nervous system is defined as neuropathic pain. It results from direct injury to nerves in the peripheral or central nervous system and is associated with several clinical symptoms ...
