NMDA Antagonist Peptide Supplementation Enhances Pain Alleviation by Adrenal Medullary Transplants

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2005
Spinal transplantation of adrenal medullary chromaffin cells has been shown to decrease pain responses in several animal models. Improved potency may be possible by engineering cells to produce greater levels of naturally derived analgesics.

Hematogenous macrophage depletion reduces the fibrotic scar and increases axonal growth after spinal cord injury

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2015
Spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to formation of a fibrotic scar that is inhibitory to axon regeneration. Recent evidence indicates that the fibrotic scar is formed by perivascular fibroblasts, but the mechanism by which they are recruited to the injury ...

A fresh look at paralytics in the critically ill: real promise and real concern. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs), or "paralytics," often are deployed in the sickest patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) when usual care fails.

Dual‐Physical‐Field Nanocatalysis: Injectable Hydrogel Enables Piezo‐Photothermal Synergy for Breast Cancer Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Piezocatalytic therapy (PCT) harnesses mechanical energy to generate tumor‐lethal reactive oxygen species (ROS), but its efficacy is limited by rapid electron‐hole recombination and poor intratumoral retention. To overcome these limitations, we engineered heterostructured BiOCl@CuO nanosheets embedded in an injectable, conductive ...

Declaraciones de Deseo y Declaraciones de Realidad : State-Indigenous Relations and Intercultural-Bilingual Education in Peru and Guatemala [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Ethnic diversity has historically created conflict in many nation-states throughout the globe. From the era of nation-state formation to the present, states have had various strategies for dealing with this diversity. These strategies can be divided into

Magnetoelectric Nanoparticle‐Based Wireless Brain–Computer Interface: Underlying Physics and Projected Technology Pathway

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Magnetoelectric nanoparticles (MENPs) enable fully wireless, minutely invasive neuromodulation, and potentially neural recording, by converting magnetic into electric and, conversely, electric into magnetic fields, respectively, at high spatiotemporal resolution.

Inhibition of microglia priming by NLRP3 reduces the impact of early life stress and mild TBI

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation
Although most patients with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) experience rapid recovery, some report persistent chronic symptoms such as cognitive dysfunction. One risk factor for prolonged recovery after mTBI is early life stress (ELS). We hypothesized

Article Commentary: Transplants of Neuronal Cells Bioengineered to Synthesize GABA Alleviate Chronic Neuropathic Pain

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 1999
The use of cell lines utilized as biologic “minipumps” to provide antinociceptive molecules, such as GABA, in animal models of pain is a newly developing area in transplantation biology.

The role of microglial inflammasome activation in pyroptotic cell death following penetrating traumatic brain injury

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2019
Background Traumatic brain injury remains a significant cause of death and disability in the USA. Currently, there are no effective therapies to mitigate disability except for surgical interventions necessitating a need for continued research into ...
