The microfluorimetrical investigation showed that in the principal perikarya of the rat superior cervical ganglion, after inhibition of noradrenaline-synthesis and unilateral preganglionic axotomy, the fluorescence of newly synthesized noradrenaline was most intense at the periphery of the perikarya of the intact side.

Comparative effects of dexpanthenol and thymoquinone on colistin-induced neurotoxicity in rats.

Colistin is used as a last-line treatment for multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacilli. Neurotoxicity limits clinic use of colistin. The use of colistin causes oxidative stress and inflammation.

Cisplatin, a chemotherapeutic drug, is known for causing gastrointestinal disorders and neuropathic pain, but its impact on visceral sensitivity is unclear. Monosodium glutamate (MSG) has been shown to improve gastrointestinal dysmotility and neuropathic pain induced by cisplatin in rats. This study aimed to determine if repeated cisplatin treatment alters visceral sensitivity and whether dietary MSG can prevent these changes.

Decellularized tissue-engineered vascular grafts (dTEVGs) exhibit superior biocompatibility, anti-infection properties and repair potential, contributing to better patency and making them a more ideal choice for arteriovenous grafts (AVGs) in hemodialysis compared to chemically synthesized grafts. However, the unsatisfactory reendothelialization and smooth muscle remodeling of current dTEVGs limit their advantages. In this study, we investigated the use of elastase to improve the porosity of elastic fiber layers in dTEVGs, aiming to promote cell infiltration and achieve superior reendothelialization and smooth muscle remodeling.

Oxidative stress and apoptosis are highly engaged in development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). In monotherapy, dapagliflozin and pioglitazone positively modulate target organ damage even independently of their hypoglycaemic effect. This study evaluated whether a simultaneous PPARγ activation and SGLT cotransporter inhibition offer superior protection against DN-related oxidative and apoptotic processes in a T1DM rat model.

Electric field stimulation directs target-specific axon regeneration and partial restoration of vision after optic nerve crush injury.

PLoS One

Department of Ophthalmology, Keck School of Medicine, USC Roski Eye Institute, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California, United States of America.

Failure of central nervous system (CNS) axons to regenerate after injury results in permanent disability. Several molecular neuro-protective and neuro-regenerative strategies have been proposed as potential treatments but do not provide the directional cues needed to direct target-specific axon regeneration. Here, we demonstrate that applying an external guidance cue in the form of electric field stimulation to adult rats after optic nerve crush injury was effective at directing long-distance, target-specific retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axon regeneration to native targets in the diencephalon.
