Selection of sciatic nerve injury models: implications for pathogenesis and treatment

Frontiers in Neurology
Sciatic nerve injury is one of the most frequent peripheral nerve injuries in the world. The loss of motor and sensory function, along with chronic pain caused by sciatic nerve injury, significantly impacts patients’ quality of life.

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 ...

Altered Excitability and Local Connectivity of mPFC-PAG Neurons in a Mouse Model of Neuropathic Pain [PDF]

, 2018
The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) plays a major role in both sensory and affective aspects of pain. There is extensive evidence that chronic pain produces functional changes within the mPFC.

From hydrogels to eutectogels: Emerging platforms for stretchable electronics

FlexMat, EarlyView.
The transition of wearable electronics toward long‐term reliability requires materials that resist dehydration without sacrificing tissue‐like softness and ionic conductivity. Eutectogels fulfill these demands by immobilizing deep eutectic solvents within tailored polymer networks.

A novel method for sciatic nerve decompression: Cadaveric feasibility study with potential application to patients with piriformis syndrome

Translational Research in Anatomy, 2015
Introduction: Approaches for proximal sciatic nerve decompression use a transgluteal route, but are associated with morbidity and complications. An alternative anterior approach to the sciatic nerve was designed.

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.
