Civilising pedagogies: An ethnography of instructional and regulative discourses in government schools in Delhi, India

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the years, surveys and data on learning outcomes have consistently shown inadequate levels of learning in schools in India, witnessing a further decline in recent years. Studies within the sociology of education have consistently highlighted the overarching role of class and caste on learning outcomes in schools. Neoliberal policy reforms

The carotid body as a putative therapeutic target for the treatment of neurogenic hypertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rat, hyperoxic inactivation of the carotid body (CB) produces a rapid and pronounced fall in both arterial pressure and renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSA).

Quantification of Palmar and Digital Epidermal Thickness and Sweat Duct Density

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Palmar digital skin, with its high density of epidermal sweat glands and unique stratum corneum, derives its autonomic innervation from peripheral nerves. Understanding the changes to these structures could serve as objective proxy markers following peripheral nerve injury and interventions to promote regeneration.

An Intact Kidney Slice Model to Investigate Vasa Recta Properties and Function in situ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Medullary blood flow is via vasa recta capillaries, which possess contractile pericytes. In vitro studies using isolated descending vasa recta show that pericytes can constrict/dilate descending vasa recta when vasoactive substances are ...

The association between neural crest‐derived glia and melanocyte lineages throughout development and disease

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient cell population that emerges from the dorsal neural tube during neurulation and migrates extensively throughout the embryo. Among their diverse derivatives, glial cells (such as Schwann and satellite ganglionic cells) and melanocytes represent two major lineages. In vitro studies suggested they share a common

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

Sympathetic Fibre Sprouting in the Skin Contributes to Pain-Related Behaviour in Spared Nerve Injury and Cuff Models of Neuropathic Pain

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2015
Background Cuff and spared nerve injury (SNI) in the sciatic territory are widely used to model neuropathic pain. Because nociceptive information is first detected in skin, it is important to understand how alterations in peripheral innervation ...

Neuromodulation of the Pineal Gland via Electrical Stimulation of Its Sympathetic Innervation Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Stimulation of the pineal gland via its sympathetic innervation pathway results in the production of N-acetylserotonin and melatonin. Melatonin has many therapeutic roles and is heavily implicated in the regulation of the sleep-wake cycle. In addition, N-

Gut microbiota‐related modulation of immune mechanisms in post‐infarction remodelling and heart failure

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 942-954, April 2025.
Abstract The immune system has long been recognized as a key driver in the progression of heart failure (HF). However, clinical trials targeting immune effectors have consistently failed to improve patient outcome across different HF aetiologies. The activation of the immune system in HF is complex, involving a broad network of pro‐inflammatory and ...
