ATP Released by Injured Neurons Activates Schwann Cells [PDF]

, 2016
Injured nerve terminals of neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) can regenerate. This remarkable and complex response is governed by molecular signals that are exchanged among the cellular components of this synapse: motor axon nerve terminal (MAT ...

Investigation of ephaptic interactions in peripheral nerve of sheep using 6 kHz subthreshold currents [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
The objective of this work was to determine whether application of subthreshold currents to the peripheral nerve increases the excitability of the underlying nerve fibres, and how this increased excitability would alter neural activity as it propagates through the subthreshold currents. Experiments were performed on two Romney cross-breed sheep in vivo,

Serotonergic and Dopaminergic Function in Neuropsychiatrically Asymptomatic People With HIV on Antiretroviral Therapy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective People with HIV (PWH) on antiretroviral therapy (ART) still experience neurocognitive dysfunction and accelerated brain volume loss. To assess whether the serotonergic and dopaminergic systems are affected, we used [11C]DASB positron emission tomography (PET) to assess presynaptic serotonergic function and [18F]FDOPA PET to measure ...

Pathway Analyses of Inherited Neuropathies Identify Putative Common Mechanisms of Axon Degeneration

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Inherited neuropathies (IN) are associated with over 100 different genetic mutations presenting with a variety of phenotypes. This complexity suggests multiple pathways may converge onto a limited number of downstream pathways to effect axonal injury.

Changes of Nerve Growth Factor Synthesis in Nonneuronal Cells in Response to Sciatic Nerve Transection [PDF]

, 1987
The intact sciatic nerve contains levels of nerve growth factor (NGF) that are comparable to those of densely innervated peripheral target tissues of NGF-responsive (sympathetic and sensory) neurons.

The feasibility and usability of mixed reality teaching in a hospital setting based on self-reported perceptions of medical students

BMC Medical Education
Background Clinical teaching during encounters with real patients lies at the heart of medical education. Mixed reality (MR) using a Microsoft HoloLens 2 (HL2) offers the potential to address several challenges: including enabling remote learning ...

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

Brain 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

Extracting impedance changes from a frequency multiplexed signal during neural activity in sciatic nerve of rat: preliminary study in-vitro [PDF]

, 2019
Objective: Establish suitable frequency spacing and demodulation steps to use when extracting impedance changes from frequency division multiplexed (FDM) carrier signals in peripheral nerve. Approach: Experiments were performed in-vitro on cadavers immediately following euthanasia.
