Extracting morphometric information from rat sciatic nerve using optical coherence tomography [PDF]

open access: yesHope, J., Braeuer, B., Amirapu, S., McDaid, A., & Vanholsbeeck, F. (2018). Extracting morphometric information from rat sciatic nerve using optical coherence tomography. Journal of biomedical optics, 23 (11), 1-14, 2018
We apply three optical coherence tomography (OCT) image analysis techniques to extract morphometric information from OCT images obtained on peripheral nerves of rat. The accuracy of each technique is evaluated against histological measurements accurate to +/-1 um. The three OCT techniques are: 1) average depth resolved profile (ADRP); 2) autoregressive

The sciatic nerve in human cadavers — high division or low formation? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Variations of the sciatic nerve have been extensively studied in the past including its relationship with the piriformis muscle and associated clinical conditions like piriformis syndrome and sciatica.

Non-invasive detection of animal nerve impulses with an atomic magnetometer operating near quantum limited sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesSci. Rep. 6, 29638 (2016), 2016
Magnetic fields generated by human and animal organs, such as the heart, brain and nervous system carry information useful for biological and medical purposes. These magnetic fields are most commonly detected using cryogenically-cooled superconducting magnetometers.

Effect of Exosomes from Rat Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Neurite Outgrowth and Sciatic Nerve Regeneration After Crush Injury

open access: yesMolecular Neurobiology, 2018
Peripheral nerve injury requires optimal conditions in both macro-environment and microenvironment for promotion of axonal regeneration. However, most repair strategies of traumatic peripheral nerve injury often lead to dissatisfying results in clinical ...

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

Cadaveric Study on Variations in the Level of Bifurcation of Sciatic Nerve and its Clinical Implications [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery, 2019
Introduction: Sciatic nerve is the thickest nerve of the human body arising from the sacral plexus. It bifurcates into tibial nerve and common fibular nerve at any level from the pelvis to the popliteal fossa. Variations in the level of bifurcation of

Analysis of Schwann Cell Migration and Axon Regeneration Following Nerve Injury in the Sciatic Nerve Bridge

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019
While it is proposed that interaction between Schwann cells and axons is key for successful nerve regeneration, the behavior of Schwann cells migrating into a nerve gap following a transection injury and how migrating Schwann cells interact with ...

Large schwannoma of the sciatic nerve [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2016
A 40-year-old woman was referred with an 8-month history of fullness of the right posterior thigh. This was associated with pain, primarily on sitting and occasional radicular pain down the ipsilateral leg. On examination a mobile, firm lump was identified that was tender to palpate and which also elicited a shooting pain down the leg on examination ...

The alternatively spliced fibronectin CS1 isoform regulates IL-17A levels and mechanical allodynia after peripheral nerve injury. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BackgroundMechanical pain hypersensitivity associated with physical trauma to peripheral nerve depends on T-helper (Th) cells expressing the algesic cytokine, interleukin (IL)-17A.
