Axonal Transport and Local Translation of mRNA in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Since neurons have long neurites including axons, it is crucial for the axons to transport many intracellular substances such as proteins and mitochondria in order to maintain their morphology and function.

Vasculitis and the peripheral nervous system [PDF]
Abstract Peripheral neuropathy is a common feature of systemic vasculitis and can also occur when vessel wall inflammation is confined to the vasa nervorum, as a tissue-specific condition—non-systemic vasculitic neuropathy (NSVN). Typically, the clinical picture in both systemic and non-systemic cases is of a lower limb predominant ...

Stereology of the Peripheral Nervous System [PDF]
Qualitative histopathology has been the gold standard for evaluation of morphological tissue changes in all organ systems, including the peripheral nervous system. However, the human eye is not sensitive enough to detect small changes in quantity or size.
