Reconstitution of CXCR3+ CCR6+ Th17.1‐Like T Cells in Response to Ofatumumab Therapy in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Ofatumumab, a fully human anti‐CD20 monoclonal antibody, is effective in reducing relapses and disability progression in patients with multiple sclerosis. This study aimed to examine immune profile changes associated with ofatumumab in a prospective cohort of Chinese patients with relapsing–remitting multiple ...

Magnesium Promotes the Regeneration of the Peripheral Nerve

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Peripheral nerve injury is a common complication in trauma, and regeneration and function recovery are clinical challenges. It is indispensable to find a suitable material to promote peripheral nerve regeneration due to the limited capacity of peripheral

The neurochemistry of peripheral nerve regeneration [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2017
ABSTRACTPeripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) can be most disabling, resulting in the loss of sensitivity, motor function and autonomic control in the involved anatomical segment. Although injured peripheral nerves are capable of regeneration, sub-optimal recovery of function is seen even with the best reconstruction.

The membrane periodic skeleton is an actomyosin network that regulates axonal diameter and conduction

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Neurons have a membrane periodic skeleton (MPS) composed of actin rings interconnected by spectrin. Here, combining chemical and genetic gain- and loss-of-function assays, we show that in rat hippocampal neurons the MPS is an actomyosin network that ...

TrkB dependent adult hippocampal progenitor differentiation mediates sustained ketamine antidepressant response

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
The precise mechanism for the sustained antidepressant action of ketamine is unclear. This study shows ketamine can promote neuronal differentiation via TrkB-ERK activation in mice and the sustained behavioral effect is attenuated when adult neurogenesis

Automatic Ultrasound Image Segmentation of Supraclavicular Nerve Using Dilated U-Net Deep Learning Architecture [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Automated object recognition in medical images can facilitate medical diagnosis and treatment. In this paper, we automatically segmented supraclavicular nerves in ultrasound images to assist in injecting peripheral nerve blocks. Nerve blocks are generally used for pain treatment after surgery, where ultrasound guidance is used to inject local ...
