Therefore we developed a model of reversible focal ischemia in which the cortical sensory evoked response served as a quantifiable index of neuronal function. The influence of heparin, PGI2, and indomethacin on postischemic nerve cell recovery was then investigated in this model. In addition, we ...
A nerve fiber is a long process of nerve cell (neurone) called the axon. The nerve cell’s body is anatomically situated in the central nervous system or within the ganglia of the peripheral nervous system. Several schemes of classification of peripheral nerve fibers have been used (Geuna et...
Once a cell is committed to leave the cell cycle and has been specified to form a particular class of neuron, a progressive process of differentiation guides the cell to its mature phenotype. Genes that control this event may begin to be expressed inprogenitor cells, but either they or their...
Therefore, the construction of the bioinspired material that can rapidly respond to local microenvironment during the acute stage and accurately regulate macrophage and microglia cell polarization to reduce inflammatory response and provide sustained neurogenic platform for stem cells in the later stage may...
Peripheral nerve regeneration using nerve conduits has been less effective than autogenous nerve grafts. To overcome this hurdle, we developed a tissue-engineered nerve conduit coated with mouse induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neurospheres,
Nerve growth factor, secreted by astroglial cells, exerts effects on tumor invasion in some cancer cells, but its function on migration and invasion in pancreatic cancer is still unclear. In the present study, we determined the effects of NGF on modulating tumor cell metastatic potential and ...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Erzhi Pill (二至丸,EZP) on nerve cell apoptosis in senescence model rats. METHODS: The rats model of senescence was established by peritoneal D-galactose injection combined with thymusectomy. Forty SD rats were randomized into four groups, the normal contro...
The complementary process of exocytosis occurs when vesicles, such as those produced by the Golgi apparatus, fuse with the plasma membrane and discharge their contents outside the cell. Exocytosis is the primary method by which cellular products such as regulatory hormones are secreted by the cell....
A Novel Process for Optimizing Musculoskeletal Allograft Tissue to Improve Safety, Ultrastructural Properties, and Cell Infiltration. Background: This study evaluated the properties of scaffold derived from freeze-dried human Achilles tendon allograft for use in anterior cruciate ligament... Whitlock,W Pat...
the FNE extends through a column of thickened epidermal cells. Below the column are Merkel cell complexes and lamellated paciniform corpuscle. The presence of three types of specialized receptor raises the possibility that Eimer’s organs have several important functions. The primary function appears ...
