Recombinant Human Neuregulin1‐β1 Significantly Reduces Schwannoma Growth in Mice
rhNRGβ1‐Replacement‐Therapy: Under physiological conditions, NRGβ1 is expressed on axons (in orange), where it activates ERBB2 receptors, facilitating successful nerve regeneration following injury. However, loss of NF2 leads to a reduction in NRGβ1‐expression and increased ErbB2 levels on Schwann cells (in green), which contributes to schwannoma ...

miR-30c promotes Schwann cell remyelination following peripheral nerve injury
Differential expression of miRNAs occurs in injured proximal nerve stumps and includes miRNAs that are firstly down-regulated and then gradually up-regulated following nerve injury. These miRNAs might be related to a Schwann cell phenotypic switch.

Sciatic Nerve Palsy following Curved Periacetabular Osteotomy
Curved periacetabular osteotomy (CPO) is used for the treatment of dysplastic hips. Previous studies have reported satisfying outcomes and low rate of severe complications associated with this procedure; however, no case of postoperative sciatic nerve ...

An examination of walking track analysis footprints of right-side unoperated limbs in rats prior to and following peripheral nerve injury and PEG fusion repair [PDF]
Peripheral nerve injury can result in long-lasting functional deficits in humans due to mammals’ limited axon regenerative capacity. PEG fusion is a defined technique that fuses injured axons, resulting in morphological and electrophysiological ...

The Functional Results of Acute Nerve Grafting in Traumatic Sciatic Nerve Injuries
The sciatic and peroneal nerves are the most frequently injured in lower extremities, followed by tibial and femoral nerves. The aim of this study is to evaluate the functional results of acute nerve grafting in traumatic sciatic nerve injuries.A total of 9 patients with sciatic nerve defect were treated with primary nerve grafting. The mean age was 31.

Analgesia induced by the epigenetic drug, L-acetylcarnitine, outlasts the end of treatment in mouse models of chronic inflammatory and neuropathic pain [PDF]
Background: L-acetylcarnitine, a drug marketed for the treatment of chronic pain, causes analgesia by epigenetically up-regulating type-2 metabotropic glutamate (mGlu2) receptors in the spinal cord.

Bioprinted Excitable Tissues with Multistimulation Systems for Promoting Function and Maturation
This review provides an overview of stimulation strategies used to enhance the functional maturation of bioprinted excitable tissues. It addresses key limitations in physiological performance of bioprinted excitable tissues, outlines major stimulation modalities—including electrical, mechanical, optical, magnetic, ultrasound, and hybrid—and examines ...

Dysregulation of NAD+ metabolism induces a Schwann cell dedifferentiation program [PDF]
The Schwann cell (SC) is the major component of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) that provides metabolic and functional support for peripheral axons. The emerging roles of SC mitochondrial function for PNS development and axonal stability indicate the
