Recent advances in the management of brachial plexus injuries

open access: yesIndian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2014
Management of brachial plexus injury is a demanding field of hand and upper extremity surgery. With currently available microsurgical techniques, functional gains are rewarding in upper plexus injuries.

A monoclonal antibody that blocks the activity of a neurite regeneration-promoting factor: studies on the binding site and its localization in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Work from several laboratories has identified a proteoglycan complex secreted by a variety of non-neuronal cells that can promote neurite regeneration when applied to the surface of culture dishes.

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 ...

Diffusion tensor imaging at 3T for diagnosing root avulsion in adults with acute traumatic brachial plexus injuries

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical
Background: Root avulsion in patients with traumatic brachial plexus injury (tBPI) are common and MRI is used to help identify patients who need urgent reconstruction.

Differential expression of the capsaicin receptor TRPV1 and related novel receptors TRPV3, TRPV4 and TRPM8 in normal human tissues and changes in traumatic and diabetic neuropathy

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2007
Background Transient receptor potential (TRP) receptors expressed by primary sensory neurons mediate thermosensitivity, and may play a role in sensory pathophysiology.

Microelectrode array recordings from the ventral roots in chronically implanted cats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
ventral spinal roots contain the axons of spinal motoneurons and provide the only location in the peripheral nervous system where recorded neural activity can be assured to be motor rather than sensory.

Electrode geometry and preferential stimulation of spinal nerve fibers having different orientations: a modeling study [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
In a computer modeling study of epidural spinal cord stimulation using a longitudinal array of electrode contacts, the effect of contact geometry and contact combination on the threshold voltages for stimulation of dorsal column (DC) fibers and dorsal ...
