Peripheral nervous system involvement in systemic amyloidosis
Неврология, нейропсихиатрия, психосоматика, 2018 Peripheral nervous system involvement may be a main manifestation of systemic amyloidosis or occur in the later stages of the disease in the presence of multiple organ pathology.

in Prague, , pp. 45-51 (2022), 2022 Rodney Brooks (1991) put forth the idea that during an agent's interaction with its environment, representations of the world often stand in the way. Instead, using the world as its own best model, i.e. interacting with it directly without making models, often leads to better and more natural behavior.

Effect of beta-Dystroglycan Processing on Utrophin / DP116 Anchorage in Normal and MDX Mouse Schwann Cell Membrane [PDF]
Neuroscience 141 (18/04/2006) 607-620, 2007 In the peripheral nervous system, utrophin and the short dystrophin isoform (Dp116) are co-localized at the outermost layer of the myelin sheath of nerve fibers; together with the dystroglycan complex. In peripheral nerve, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) creates a 30 kDa fragment of beta-dystroglycan, leading to a disruption of the link between the ...

Botulinum Neurotoxins in Central Nervous System: An Overview from Animal Models to Human Therapy
Toxins, 2021 Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) are potent inhibitors of synaptic vesicle fusion and transmitter release. The natural target of BoNTs is the peripheral neuromuscular junction (NMJ) where, by blocking the release of acetylcholine (ACh), they functionally ...

Mitochondrial DNA disorders in neuromuscular diseases in diverse populations
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.Abstract Neuromuscular features are common in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) disorders. The genetic architecture of mtDNA disorders in diverse populations is poorly understood. We analysed mtDNA variants from whole‐exome sequencing data in neuromuscular patients from South Africa, Brazil, India, Turkey and Zambia. In 998 individuals, there were two definite

Taxanes and platinum derivatives impair Schwann cells via distinct mechanisms
Scientific Reports, 2017 Impairment of peripheral neurons by anti-cancer agents, including taxanes and platinum derivatives, has been considered to be a major cause of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), however, the precise underlying mechanisms are not fully ...

Modeling the Neuromuscular Control System of an Octopus Arm [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The octopus arm is a neuromechanical system that involves a complex interplay between peripheral nervous system (PNS) and arm musculature. This makes the arm capable of carrying out rich maneuvers. In this paper, we build a model for the PNS and integrate it with a muscular soft octopus arm.
