Peripheral nerves are fragile and easily damaged, usually resulting in nervous tissue loss, motor sensory function loss. Advances neuroscience engineering have been significantly contributing to bridge the damage nerve create permissive environment for axonal regrowth across lesions. We successfully designed two self-assembling peptides by modifying RADA 16-I with functional motifs IKVAV RGD. Nanofiber hydrogel formed when combing neutral solutions together, defined as 16-Mix that overcomes...

Decoupling domain-variant information (DVI) from domain-invariant (DII) serves as a prominent strategy for mitigating domain shifts in the practical implementation of deep learning algorithms. However, medical settings, concerns surrounding data collection and privacy often restrict access to both training test data, hindering empirical decoupling by existing methods. To tackle this issue, we propose an Autonomous Information Filter-driven Source-free Domain Adaptation (AIF-SFDA) algorithm,...

To detect white matter microstructural alterations in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) normal cognitive function using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). This study included PA and normotensive healthy controls (HCs). MRI (T1-weighted) DTI data were collected for all participants. Using the Johns Hopkins University fiber tractography template, we calculated values of fractional anisotropy (FA), axial diffusivity (AD), radial (RD), mean (MD). Compared to HC group, group showed...

Abstract Following root avulsion, spinal nerves are physically disconnected from the cord. Severe motoneuron death and inefficient axon regeneration often result in devastating motor dysfunction. Newly formed axons need to extend through inhibitory scar tissue at CNS-PNS transitional zone before entering into a pro-regenerative peripheral nerve trajectory. CSPGs dominant suppressors exert inhibition via neuronal receptors including PTPσ. Previously, small peptide memetic of PTPσ wedge region...

While Brain-derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) has long been implicated in treating neurological diseases, recombinant BDNF protein failed multiple clinical trials. In addition to its unstable and adhesive nature, can activate p75NTR, a receptor mediating cellular functions opposite those of TrkB. We have now identified TrkB agonistic antibodies (TrkB-agoAbs) with several properties superior BDNF: They exhibit blood half-life days instead hours, diffuse centimeters neural tissues...
