Reunification of a split sciatic nerve

open access: yesAnatomy & Cell Biology, 2020
Sciatic nerve (SN) variaitons can result in interesting clinical presentations. We identified a SN variant that does not fit into preexisting classification schemes. In an adult male cadaver, the SN was found to divide proximally and partly exit through the piriformis muscle. Distal to the piriformis, the two parts of the SN were reunited.

Gpr126/Adgrg6 has Schwann cell autonomous and nonautonomous functions in peripheral nerve injury and repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Schwann cells (SCs) are essential for proper peripheral nerve development and repair, although the mechanisms regulating these processes are incompletely understood.

Peroxisomal dysfunctions cause lysosomal storage and axonal Kv1 channel redistribution in peripheral neuropathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Impairment of peripheral nerve function is frequent in neurometabolic diseases, but mechanistically not well understood. Here, we report a novel disease mechanism and the finding that glial lipid metabolism is critical for axon function, independent of ...

Biodegradable magnesium wire promotes regeneration of compressed sciatic nerves

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2016
Magnesium (Mg) wire has been shown to be biodegradable and have anti-inflammatory properties. It can induce Schwann cells to secrete nerve growth factor and promote the regeneration of nerve axons after central nervous system injury. We hypothesized that

A Rabbit Model for Peripheral Nerve Reconstruction Studies Avoiding Automutilation Behavior

open access: yesJournal of Brachial Plexus and Peripheral Nerve Injury, 2022
Background The rabbit sciatic nerve injury model may represent a valuable alternative for critical gap distance seen in humans but often leads to automutilation. In this study, we modified the complete sciatic nerve injury model for avoiding autophagy.

Glial βii spectrin contributes to paranode formation and maintenance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Action potential conduction along myelinated axons depends on high densities of voltage-gated Na channels at the nodes of Ranvier. Flanking each node, paranodal junctions (paranodes) are formed between axons and Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous ...

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.

The clinical features of the piriformis syndrome: a systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Piriformis syndrome, sciatica caused by compression of the sciatic nerve by the piriformis muscle, has been described for over 70 years; yet, it remains controversial. The literature consists mainly of case series and narrative reviews. The objectives of

Examining the mechanical influences upon the sciatic nerve at the sciatic nerve-hamstring muscle interface during active and passive knee extension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Ultrasound imaging has been used to examine movement of the peripheral nervous system in response to normal body movements and therapeutic exercises, such as neural mobilisation.
