Optical Stimulation and Monitoring of the Peripheral Nervous System: Perspectives and Challenges Toward Clinical Translation

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Optical neuromodulation with IR light allows stimulation of the PNS without the need for physical contact with the target nerve or without requiring any genetic modification. The clinical translation of this technique will pave the way to the development of neural interfaces for restoring sensory feedback in individuals with limb amputation.

Schwann cell extracellular matrix molecules and their receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The major cellular constituents of the mammalian peripheral nervous system are neurons (axons) and Schwann cells. During peripheral nerve development Schwann cells actively deposit extracellular matrix (ECM), comprised of basal lamina sheets that ...

The role of the extracellular matrix in Schwann cell development and myelination

open access: yes, 2007
INTRODUCTION The cellular components of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) - neurons and their axons, Schwann cells, perineurial cells, endoneurial fibroblasts and vessel endothelia - are surrounded by extracellular components such as collagens ...

The STRIPAK complex is required for radial sorting and laminin receptor expression in Schwann cells [PDF]

open access: yes
During peripheral nervous system development, Schwann cells undergo Rac1-dependent cytoskeletal reorganization as they insert cytoplasmic extensions into axon bundles to sort and myelinate individual axons.

The Role of Schwann Cells During Retinal Ganglion Cell Regeneration Induced by Peripheral Nerve Transplantation

open access: yes, 2020
Purpose. To investigate the key role of Schwann cells in retinal ganglion cell regeneration elicited by peripheral nerve autotransplantation. Methods. Three kinds of autografts, Schwann-cell graft (intact sciatic nerve, consisting of living Schwann cells

Electrical Modalities in the Rehabilitation of Peripheral Nerve Injuries: State of the Literature and Current Clinical Applications

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) are a common cause of long‐term motor and sensory disability despite advances in microsurgical repair. Functional recovery following PNI depends not only on axonal regeneration, but also on preservation of distal nerve pathways, maintenance of neuromuscular junction integrity, prevention of irreversible muscle ...

Electrophysiologic Demyelinating Features Are Common in Vasculitic Neuropathy: A Cohort of Biopsy‐Confirmed Cases

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Electrophysiologic features suggestive of demyelination have been reported in vasculitic neuropathy, complicating the diagnostic process, but their frequency is unknown. We aimed to determine the prevalence of demyelinating features, including fulfillment of European Academy of Neurology/Peripheral Nerve Society (EAN/PNS ...

Are We Overmonitoring Vestibular Schwannomas? Challenging the Necessity of Tracking Them All

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Increased MRI use for nonspecific symptoms has led to frequent detection of small or incidental vestibular schwannomas (VS), most of which never require treatment. This study aimed to develop and validate a stepwise model to stratify VS patients using early MRI findings and reduce unnecessary long‐term surveillance.
