Introduction: Schwannomatosis is a rare type of neurofibromatosis, usually affects people between ages 25 and 30 years old. causes tumors to develop on the cranial, spinal, peripheral nerves. The most common symptoms are: chronic pain, which can occur anywhere in body be disabling, numbness or weakness various parts body, muscle paresis. Two genes are known cause schwannomatosis. Mutations SMAR...

Myoelectric control methods aim at driving electric prostheses in restoring functionality daily life for amputees. To achieve the simultaneous and proportional estimation of multiple kinematics wrist joint, model-free approaches are broadly developed but rely on abundant training data numerical functions that omit neuro-mechanical transformation. The musculoskeletal model-based approach entails...

Larval motor neurons remodel during Drosophila neuro-muscular junction dismantling at metamorphosis. In this study, we describe the motor neuron retraction as opposed to degeneration based on the early disappearance of β-Spectrin and the continuing presence of Tubulin. By blocking cell dynamics with a dominant-negative form of Dynamin, we show that phagocytes have a key role in this process. Im...

Introduction The molluscan neuro-muscular system shows extreme diversity. Cephalopods present an original body plan, a derived neuro-muscular complex and a development with drastic changes in the anteroposterior/dorso-ventral orientation. How it took place during evolution is an unresolved question that can be approached by the study of developmental genes. Studying the expression of conserved ...
