Human spinal cord injury (SCI) results in locomotor and sensory disabilities, which severely affect the quality of life. To restore function after SCI, it is necessary to repair and reconstruct the damaged local circuitry. Major hurdles in neural regeneration include a limited level of neurogenesis in the adult spinal cord and an inflammatory microenvironment that inhibits neurogenesis and axon regeneration.

脑脓肿是具有致命风险的中枢神经系统感染性疾病,及时有效的治疗脑脓肿依赖于神经内科、神经影像科和神经外科的积极合作.神经影像技术指导下的神经外科手术不仅可以切除病灶,还可以为病原菌诊断提供有效帮助.在经验性抗感染治疗过程中,要充分考虑厌氧菌感染的可能性.经足够疗程静脉抗生素治疗的患者,可以给予适宜的口服抗生素治疗,并在门诊随诊过程中,关注患者病灶变化及癫痫等常见并发症的发生.综上,本文对脑脓肿诊断及治疗新进展进行综述.
ATXN2 one gene with multiple phenotype effects: ATXN2 gene encodes a cytosolic protein (ataxin-2) with pleiotropic functions (see below). This gene contains a number of exonic Cytosine-Adenine-Guanine (CAG)-repeats which encodes a polyglutamine tract (pol
Spinal cord injury (SCI), either from trauma or degenerative changes, can result in severe disability and impaired quality of life. Understanding the cellular processes and molecular mechanisms that underlie SCI is imperative to identifying molecular targ
Egfr, a member of the ErbB gene family, plays a critical role in tissue development and homeostasis, wound healing, and disease. However, expression and regulators of Egfr during spinal cord development remain poorly understood. In this study, we investig
Plasticity of cerebellar Purkinje cells (PC) is influenced by progesterone via the classical progesterone receptors PR-A and PR-B by stimulating dendritogenesis, spinogenesis, and synaptogenesis in these cells. Dissociated PC cultures were used to analyze
An enriched environment is used as a behavioral intervention therapy that applies sensory, motor, and social stimulation, and has been used in basic and clinical research of various neurological diseases. In this study, we established mouse models of phot
With the constant development of multiphoton microscopy, our ability to observe complex and dynamic biological processes deeper within living tissue, is steadily improving. Researchers use multiphoton microscopy, because experiments can be conducted with
Alzheimer\'s disease (AD) mouse models have proven to be an invaluable tool for deepening our understanding of disease mechanisms and for developing therapeutics. However, one common frustration is the lack of replicability in behavioral findings. As we
TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) is an essential 414 amino acid protein that regulates multiple aspects of RNA biogenesis, processing, and transport. It localizes primarily in the nucleus, but abnormal translocation and accumulation in the cytosol occu
Alzheimer\'s disease (AD) is affected by genetic factors. Polymorphisms in the glutathione S-transferase omega-1 (Gsto1) gene have been shown by genetic correlation analyses performed in different ethnic populations to be genetic risk factors for AD. Ge
