Inflammatory Profiling of Patients Undergoing Lumbar Interbody Fusion by Different Approaches: In Search for Markers of Mini-invasiveness

Global Spine Journal, 2016
Introduction Minimally-invasive surgeries have become routinely adopted due to reduced tissue trauma and damage. In spine surgery, and particularly lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) procedures, several minimal invasive approaches are available.

Structure-function analysis on the level of individual synapses [PDF]

, 2010
Excitatory synapses in the mammalian brain are made on small protrusions of the postsynaptic cell called dendritic spines. Dendritic spines are highly variable in their morphology and in their microanatomy (e.g. presence of subsynaptic organelles). It is

The combination of three-dimensional and rotary cell culture system promotes the proliferation and maintains the differentiation potential of rat BMSCs

Scientific Reports, 2017
Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are a good candidate for tissue engineering and clinical application. One of the challenges in its cell therapy is how to quickly obtain an adequate number of seed cells and meanwhile maintain suitable ...

Ceramide levels regulated by carnitine palmitoyl transferase 1C control dendritic spine maturation and cognition [PDF]

, 2020
The brain-specific isoform carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1C (CPT1C) has been implicated in the hypothalamic regulation of food intake and energy homeostasis.

Barriers in the brain: resolving dendritic spine morphology and compartmentalization [PDF]

, 2014
Dendritic spines are micron-sized protrusions that harbor the majority of excitatory synapses in the central nervous system. The head of the spine is connected to the dendritic shaft by a 50-400 nm thin membrane tube, called the spine neck, which has ...

Is Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery Also Minimally Pro-Inflammatory? Muscular Markers, Inflammatory Parameters and Cytokines to Quantify the Operative Invasiveness Assessment in Spine Fusion

European Journal of Inflammation, 2014
Over the last decades, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) techniques entered in the surgical routine due to their major advantage in reducing the unnecessary exposure of tissue and, thus, the trauma.

Hypoxia-sensitive long noncoding RNA CASC15 promotes lung tumorigenesis by regulating the SOX4/β-catenin axis

Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2021
Background Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in the hypoxia-related cancer process and play pivotal roles in enabling malignant cells to survive under hypoxic stress.

Microtubule-associated protein 2 mediates induction of long-term potentiation in hippocampal neurons

, 2020
Microtubule-associated protein (MAP) 2 has been perceived as a static cytoskeletal protein enriched in neuronal dendritic shafts. Emerging evidence indicates dynamic functions for various MAPs in activity-dependent synaptic plasticity.
