Piezoelectric Stimulation of Neural Cells: Exploring the Synergistic Potential of Hybrid Scaffolds for Enhanced Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Hybrid piezoelectric scaffolds offer a promising route for Central Nervous System regeneration by combining structural and electrical cues to support neural stem cell growth. This review highlights their potential to overcome current challenges in neural tissue engineering by exploring porous hybrid materials, their biological interactions, and ...

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 ...

Ultra‐Thin Soft Pneumatic Actuation for Minimally Invasive Neural Interfacing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Parylene C is a common polymer in bioelectronics, favored for its biological and chemical inertness. However, this makes bonding layers of Parylene C together very challenging. Here it is a laser to selectively weld layers of Parylene C to create high‐pressure fluidic actuation devices.

Surgically Induced Demyelination in Rat Sciatic Nerve

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2023
Demyelination is a common sign of peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) caused by damage to the myelin sheath surrounding axons in the sciatic nerve. There are not many methods to induce demyelination in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) using animal models.

Mapping of Physiological Signals From Wireless Battery‐Free Implants With Plane‐Wave Ultrasound Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Combined approach of electromagnetic (Power) and ultrasound (data harvesting) waves is proposed to address the miniaturized ultrasonic implants. Electromagnetic waves trigger the piezoelectric element to generate the acoustic pulse which is modulated by the variations in the sensor's impedance.

Denervated Schwann cells attract macrophages by secretion of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in a process regulated by interleukin-6 and LIF [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Injury to peripheral nerves results in the infiltration of immune cells, which remove axonal- and myelin-derived material. Schwann cells could play a key role in this process by regulating macrophage infiltration.

Sciatic nerve injection injury

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2014
Nerve injury is a common complication following intramuscular injection and the sciatic nerve is the most frequently affected nerve, especially in children, the elderly and underweight patients. The neurological presentation may range from minor transient pain to severe sensory disturbance and motor loss with poor recovery.

A Wireless, Implantable, and Stretchable Device for Optogenetic Modulation (WISDOM) in the Central and Peripheral Nervous Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
WISDOM, a wireless, implantable, and stretchable optogenetic platform inspired by climbing tendrils, integrates a 3D helical interconnect and customizable µ‐LEDs for precise, long‐term neuromodulation across the brain, peripheral nerves, and organs in freely behaving animals, enabling system‐level studies and therapeutic exploration of complex ...

The structural and functional integrity of peripheral nerves depends on the glial-derived signal desert hedgehog [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.
