Inflammation and axon regeneration.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The inflammatory response that accompanies neural injury involves multiple cell types and effector molecules with both positive and negative effects. Inflammation is essential for normal regeneration in the peripheral nervous system, and here we review evidence that augmenting inflammation can enhance regeneration in areas of the central nervous system in which it normally doe...
متن کاملNogo and axon regeneration.
Nogo-A is one of several neurite growth inhibitory components present in oligodendrocytes and CNS myelin membranes. Nogo has a crucial role in restricting axonal regeneration and compensatory fibre growth in the injured adult mammalian CNS. Recent studies have shown that in vivo applications of Nogo neutralizing antibodies, peptides blocking the Nogo receptor subunit NgR, or blockers of the pos...
متن کاملGlycosaminoglycan Chains and Axon Regeneration
Specific sensory input to neocortex arrives in layer 4, whereas nonspecific input, such as information about salience or novelty, is thought to arrive in layer 1. This scheme might imply a slower arrival of inputs to layer 1. In this issue, Zhu and Zhu examine this question using paired whole-cell recording in vivo from layer 1 nonpyramidal cells and the dendrites of the output pyramidal neuron...

Microfluidic Tools to Investigate Protein Crystallization A dissertation presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Brandeis University, Waltham, Massachusetts by Michael Heymann There is no guarantee that a given protein has a crystalline phase, but even existence of an equilibrium crystalline phase is not sufficient for a crystal to form because the transformation...
متن کاملDeveloping Mathematical Tools to Investigate Art
It all started (at least for my students and myself) in December 2006, at a colloquium talk in Applied Mathematics at Princeton University, by Rick Johnson, a distinguished professor in Electrical Engineering at Cornell University, freshly back from a year’s sabbatical in the Netherlands. At the end of his talk, he advertised the possibility for some very interesting and challenging Image Proce...
