Classification of peripheral nerve fibres.

The distribution of electron-dense tracers in peripheral nerve fibres.

Two electron-dense tracers, ferritin and lanthanum, have been administered to peripheral nerve fibres, and their uptake has been studied ultrastructurally. It was found that the perineurium was an effective barrier to ferritin in vivo, and the tracer was subsequently injected sub-perineurially. Ferritin uptake over a 120-min period was confined to occasional phagocytic vesicles in perineurial a...

Aberrant Peripheral Nerve Fibres in the Medulla Oblongata of Man.

Nanotechnology for peripheral nerve regeneration

Peripheral nerve injuries (PNI) can lead to lifetime loss of function and disfigurement. Different methods such as conventional allograft procedures and using of biological tubes have problems for damaged peripheral nerves reconstruction. Designed scaffolds with natural and synthetic materials are now widely used in the reconstruction of damaged tissues. Utilization of absorbable and non-absorb...

Acquired medullated nerve fibres.

Myelination of nerve fibres normally stops at the lamina cribrosa. When it does proceed beyond the lamina cribrosa, it is believed to do so shortly after birth. A patient is recorded in whom medullated nerve fibres developed in the retina during adult life.
