We describe the evolution of axonal injury following the induction of neural damage by electrical stimulation. The sciatic nerves of cats were stimulated continuously for 8 h with charge-balanced waveforms at high intensities, 50 Hz and 2100-4500 Β΅A, using circumneural helical electrodes. Computer-a

## Abstract Glucocorticoids improve the symptoms of peripheral nerve disorders, such as carpal tunnel syndrome and peripheral neuropathy. The effects of glucocorticoids are mainly antiβinflammatory, but the mechanisms of their effects in peripheral nerve disorders remain unclear. Schwann cells of t
Peripheral nerve trauma induces the expression of genes presumed to be involved in the process of nerve degeneration and repair. In the present study, an in vivo paradigm was employed to identify molecules which may have important roles in these processes. A cDNA library was constructed with RNA ext
## Abstract The function of the p75^NTR^ neurotrophin receptor (p75^NTR^) in nervous system regeneration is still controversial. Part of that controversy may be due to the fact that p75^NTR^ is expressed by both neuronal and glial cell types and may have very distinct and even contradictory roles i
