Peripheral Nervous System [PDF]

, 2020
The peripheral nervous system is that part of the nervous system outside the brain and spinal cord. The peripheral nervous system is often described with the muscle, and indeed neuropathologists deliver diagnosis on both nerve and muscle pathology other than on pathology of the central nervous system.

Typical CIDP, distal variant CIDP, and anti-MAG antibody neuropathy: An ultra-high frequency ultrasound comparison of nerve structure

Scientific Reports
To date, little is known about the usefulness of ultra-high frequency ultrasound (UHF-US, 50–70 MHz) in clinical practice for the diagnosis of dysimmune neuropathies.

Neuronal Excitation Induces Tau Protein Dephosphorylation via Protein Phosphatase 1 Activation to Promote Its Binding with Stable Microtubules

Neurology International
The tau protein is a microtubule-associated protein that promotes microtubule stabilization. The phosphorylation of the tau protein has been linked to its dissociation from microtubules.

Dysregulation of NAD+ metabolism induces a Schwann cell dedifferentiation program [PDF]

, 2018
The Schwann cell (SC) is the major component of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) that provides metabolic and functional support for peripheral axons. The emerging roles of SC mitochondrial function for PNS development and axonal stability indicate the

Lifestyle Behaviors and Cardiotoxic Treatment Risks in Adult Childhood Cancer Survivors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Higher doses of anthracyclines and heart‐relevant radiotherapy increase cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. This study assessed CVD and CVD risk factors among adult childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) across cardiotoxic treatment risk groups and examined associations between lifestyle behaviors and treatment risks.

Exploring Ultrasonographic Atypical Aspects in Drug‐Resistant Multifocal Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy

Brain and Behavior
Introduction/aims Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and its variants are characterized by nerve enlargement (NE), particularly in the proximal segments of the median nerve (MN) and cervical roots, as assessed by ultrasound (US). NE

Differences in sensitivity to mTHPC-mediated photodynamic therapy of neurons, glial cells and MCF7 cells in a 3-dimensional cell culture model [PDF]

, 2008
The effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) on the cells of the nervous system is an important consideration in the treatment of tumours that are located within or adjacent to the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves.

The Tumor Suppressor HHEX Inhibits Axon Growth when Prematurely Expressed in Developing Central Nervous System Neurons [PDF]

, 2015
Neurons in the embryonic and peripheral nervoussystem respond to injury by activating transcriptional programs supportive of axon growth, ultimately resulting in functional recovery.

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only
