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

Loss of neurons from laminas I-III of the spinal dorsal horn is not required for development of tactile allodynia in the spared nerve injury model of neuropathic pain [PDF]
, 2005 It has been proposed that death of inhibitory interneurons in the dorsal horn contributes to the neuropathic pain that follows partial nerve injury. In this study, we have used two approaches to test whether there is neuronal death in the dorsal horn in ...

The structural and functional integrity of peripheral nerves depends on the glial-derived signal desert hedgehog [PDF]
, 2006 We show that desert hedgehog ( dhh), a signaling molecule expressed by Schwann cells, is essential for the structural and functional integrity of the peripheral nerve.

Correlated disorder in myelinated axons orientational geometry and structure
, 2017 While the ultrastructure of the myelin has been considered to be a quasi-crystalline stable system, nowadays its multiscale complex dynamics appears to play a key role for its functionality, degeneration and repair processes following neurological ...

Neurolymphomatosis of the Sciatic and Tibial Nerves
Journal of the College of Physicians and Surgeons Pakistan, 2019 Neurolymphomatosis (NL) is an uncommon clinical condition, characterised by lymphomatous infiltration of the central and/or peripheral nervous system. Most often it is caused by B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Clinically, patients usually present with neuropathy involving the nerve roots, plexuses, peripheral or cranial nerves.

miR-sc3, a Novel MicroRNA, Promotes Schwann Cell Proliferation and Migration by Targeting Astn1
Cell Transplantation, 2016 MicroRNAs (miRNAs, miRs) are small noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level. We have previously identified a group of novel miRNAs in proximal sciatic nerve after sciatic nerve transection by Solexa sequencing, and ...

Neurofibroma of the Sciatic Nerve with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 [PDF]
Acta Medica Iranica, 2011 A 28-year-old man with neurofibromatosis type 1(NF1) presented with a tumor in the sciatic nerve and femoral nerve. The differential diagnosis of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor was based on clinical, radiological, and histological evidence.
