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.

Differential neuroproteomic and systems biology analysis of spinal cord injury [PDF]

, 2016
Acute spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition with many consequences and no known effective treatment. Although it is quite easy to diagnose traumatic SCI, the assessment of injury severity and projection of disease progression or recovery ...

Paradoxical signaling regulates structural plasticity in dendritic spines

, 2016
Transient spine enlargement (3-5 min timescale) is an important event associated with the structural plasticity of dendritic spines. Many of the molecular mechanisms associated with transient spine enlargement have been identified experimentally.

MicroRNA-9 controls dendritic development by targeting REST [PDF]

, 2014
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are conserved noncoding RNAs that function as posttranscriptional regulators of gene expression. miR-9 is one of the most abundant miRNAs in the brain.

Peripheral and central mechanisms involved in hormonal control of male and female reproduction [PDF]

, 2016
Reproduction involves the integration of hormonal signals acting across multiple systems togenerate a synchronized physiological output. A critical component of reproduction is the luteinizinghormone (LH) surge, which is mediated by estradiol (E2) and ...

Synaptic plasticity and cognitive function are disrupted in the absence of Lrp4. [PDF]

, 2014
Lrp4, the muscle receptor for neuronal Agrin, is expressed in the hippocampus and areas involved in cognition. The function of Lrp4 in the brain, however, is unknown, as Lrp4-/- mice fail to form neuromuscular synapses and die at birth.
