The Peripheral Nervous System and the Pathogenesis of Prion Diseases [PDF]
Prion diseases are inevitably fatal neurodegenerative conditions which affect humans and a wide variety of animals. Unlike other protein aggregation diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and polyglutamine repeat diseases, prion diseases are unique in that they are transmissible.

Focus on 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 in the Peripheral Nervous System [PDF]
In this review, we draw attention to the roles of calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3) in the trophicity of the peripheral nervous system. Calcitriol has long been known to be crucial in phosphocalcium homeostasis. However, recent discoveries concerning

Peripherin is a biomarker of axonal damage in peripheral nervous system disease
Abstract Valid, responsive blood biomarkers specific to peripheral nerve damage would improve management of peripheral nervous system (PNS) diseases. Neurofilament light chain (NfL) is sensitive for detecting axonal pathology but is not specific to PNS damage, as it is expressed throughout the PNS and CNS.

Peripheral nervous system involvement in patients with sickle cell disease [PDF]
Peripheral nervous system involvement is rare in sickle cell disease (SCD). The aim of this study is to determine the peripheral nerve involvement electrophysiologically in SCD patients without clinically evident neurological signs, symptoms and to determine the relationship between the frequency of sickle cell crisis and peripheral neuropathy.Fifty ...
