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]
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
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]
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.

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 ...

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
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.
