Toward peripheral nerve mechanical characterization using Brillouin imaging spectroscopy [PDF]
SIGNIFICANCE: Peripheral nerves are viscoelastic tissues with unique elastic characteristics. Imaging of peripheral nerve elasticity is important in medicine, particularly in the context of nerve injury and repair.

Strain stiffening of peripheral nerves subjected to longitudinal extensions in vitro [PDF]
The mechanical response of peripheral nerves is crucial to understand their physiological and pathological conditions. However, their response to external mechanical solicitations is still partially unclear, since peripheral nerves could behave in a ...

Spinocerebellar Ataxia 3 (SCA3) Patient with Peripheral Neuropathy [PDF]
Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) 3 is a neurodegenerative disease which involves cerebellum and extra cerebellum. Neuropathy in SCA3 manifests in various ways, including axonal and demyelination lesions in sensory and motor nerves.

The Glucuronyltransferase GlcAT-P Is Required for Stretch Growth of Peripheral Nerves in Drosophila [PDF]
During development, the growth of the animal body is accompanied by a concomitant elongation of the peripheral nerves, which requires the elongation of integrated nerve fibers and the axons projecting therein.

3D Neuro-electronic interface devices for neuromuscular control: Design studies and realisation steps [PDF]
In order to design the shape and dimensions of new 3D multi-microelectrode information transducers properly, i. e. adapted to the scale of information delivery to and from peripheral nerve fibres, a number of studies were, and still are, being performed ...

Glucose availability and sensitivity to anoxia of isolated rat peripheral nerve [PDF]
The contrast between resistance to ischemia and ischemic lesions in peripheral nerves of diabetic patients was explored by in vitro experiments. Isolated and desheathed rat peroneal nerves were incubated in the following solutions with different glucose ...

c-Jun reprograms Schwann cells of injured nerves to generate a repair cell essential for regeneration. [PDF]
The radical response of peripheral nerves to injury (Wallerian degeneration) is the cornerstone of nerve repair. We show that activation of the transcription factor c-Jun in Schwann cells is a global regulator of Wallerian degeneration.

Spectral and Spatial Dependence of Diffuse Optical Signals in Response to Peripheral Nerve Stimulation [PDF]
Using non-invasive, near-infrared spectroscopy we have previously reported optical signals measured at or around peripheral nerves in response to their stimulation.

Ultrasound elastography in the evaluation of peripheral neuropathies : a systematic review of the literature [PDF]
Peripheral neuropathy is associated with an increase in intraneural pressure, and hence ultrasound elastography seems to be an ideal method to detect early stages of this condition based on changes in the affected nerve stiffness.

Dysuria following hysterectomy [PDF]
In the observations of the pelvic nerves both in the reconstruction model of the pelvis of newborn and that of the extripated specimen after OKABAYASHI's hysterectomy as well as in the observations of pelvic nerves at autopsy, it has been verified that ...
