Silencing of circRNA.2837 Plays a Protective Role in Sciatic Nerve Injury by Sponging the miR-34 Family via Regulating Neuronal Autophagy

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2018
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) represent a class of non-coding RNAs that are involved in transcriptional and posttranscriptional gene expression regulation and associated with different kinds of human diseases.

Neurofibroma of the Sciatic Nerve with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 [PDF]

open access: yesActa 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.

3D‐Printing of Electroconductive MXene‐Based Micro‐Meshes in a Biomimetic Hyaluronic Acid‐Based Scaffold Directs and Enhances Electrical Stimulation for Neural Repair Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study combined microscale 3D‐printing with 2D Ti3C2Tx MXene nanosheets to produce electroconductive microfibrous micro‐meshes. By embedding these MXene‐functionalized micro‐meshes within a growth‐supportive macroporous extracellular matrix (ECM)‐based biomaterial, multifunctional biomimetic MXene‐ECM scaffolds were developed.

Measuring neuromuscular junction functionality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Neuromuscular junction (NMJ) functionality plays a pivotal role when studying diseases in which the communication between motor neuron and muscle is impaired, such as aging and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Anatomical variation in bifurcation and trifurcations of sciatic nerve and its clinical implications: in selected university in Ethiopia

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2015
BackgroundThe Sciatic nerve is the widest nerve of the body. It consists of two components, namely: the tibia and the common peroneal components derived from the ventral rami of L4 to S3 spinal nerves of the lumbosacral plexus.

Chirality Regulates Stem Cell Fate and Promotes Corneal Epithelial Regeneration via Manipulating Notch Pathway

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chirality governs the limbal epithelial stem cell fate. Right‐handed chirality enhances cell proliferation and differentiation, while left‐handed chirality partially maintains cell stemness. By activating the Notch pathway, 3D right‐handed chiral hydrogel offers a drug‐free and cell‐free strategy for effective corneal regeneration.

Advances in Medical Devices for Augmented Acupuncture Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Traditional acupuncture therapy faces several challenges in clinical applications, such as complex operation procedures and prolonged therapeutic periods. By incorporating physical stimulations and drug delivery technologies, engineered acupuncture needles (EANs) can enhance therapeutic efficacy, improve patient compliance, as well as mitigate ...

miR-sc3, a Novel MicroRNA, Promotes Schwann Cell Proliferation and Migration by Targeting Astn1

open access: yesCell 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 ...

Studies on cultured Schwann cells: the induction of myelin synthesis, and the control of their proliferation by a new growth factor [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
We have recently described the use of immunological methods to identify and purify rat Schwann cells. In dissociated cultures of neonatal sciatic nerve, all of the cells can be identified by antigenic criteria as either Schwann cells or fibroblasts.
