Characterising cellular and molecular features of human peripheral nerve degeneration

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2020
Nerve regeneration is a key biological process in those recovering from neural trauma. From animal models it is known that the regenerative capacity of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) relies heavily on the remarkable ability of Schwann cells to ...

Peripheral nerve surgery in Serbia: “Think global, act local” and the privilege of service

open access: yesBrain and Spine, 2022
Introduction: The phrase “think globally, act locally”, which has often been used to refer to conservation of the environment, highlights the importance of maintaining a holistic perspective and stipulates that each individual has a role to play in their

Lateral elbow ligament reconstruction for posterolateral rotatory instability: 10 years follow-up in 32 patients

open access: yesJSES International, 2023
Background: Posterolateral rotatory instability (PLRI) is the most frequent form of both acute and chronic elbow instability. It is due to mechanical incompetence of the lateral collateral ligament.

A technique for electrically inserting electrode arrays into peripheral nerves [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The authors developed a system based on high-frequency cutting methods to facilitate the insertion of multi-dimensional electrode arrays into peripheral nerves. The system incorporates a feedback loop for controlling arc intensity. This should reduce the

Posterior division of ipsilateral C7 transfer to C5 for shoulder abduction limitation

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
BackgroundReparation of C5 by proximal selective ipsilateral C7 transfer has been reported for the treatment of neurogenic shoulder abduction limitation as an alternative to the reparation of the suprascapular nerve (SSN) and the axillary nerve (AXN) by ...

Lumbosacral Plexogram: An Aid to Reconstructive Nerve Possibilities in the Lower Extremity

open access: yesPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open
Summary:. The lumbosacral plexus is the network of nerves responsible for the motor and sensory function of the pelvis and lower limb. Our observation is that the anatomy of this plexus is less familiar to surgeons than that of the brachial plexus ...

Transcriptional regulation of neuropeptide receptors underlies context‐dependent adaptation in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Under environmental changes, the expression level of neuropeptide (NP) and neuropeptide receptor (NPR) genes changes to confer context‐dependent adaptation to the model organism Drosophila melanogaster. Through finding more regulatory elements in the NPR genes in comparison with their ligands (NPs), we found that NPR‐biased transcriptional regulation ...
