(a) The various types of neurons in the spinal cord are distributed according to their anatomical locations. (b) The rostral–caudal (RC) axis of the spinal cord is established by gradients of RA, FGF8 ...

A recent review published in Engineering explores the construction and potential applications of spinal cord and peripheral nerve organoids for regenerative medicine in neurotrauma. The article, ...

Researchers find that nerve stimulation can improve the function of peripheral nerves damaged by spinal cord injury (SCI). This technique may be a new approach to preventing long-term changes in nerve ...

Interpretation of clinical findings of BPI in newborns depends on knowledge of peripheral nervous system (PNS) structures and physiology. All nervous system structures originate from the embryonic ...

Peripheral neuropathy is a blanket term for pain and discomfort and other symptoms that result from damage to peripheral nerves, which are the nerves that extend away from the brain and spinal cord.

The brain and spinal cord are your body’s central nervous system. The brain is the command center for your body, and the spinal cord is the pathway for messages sent by the brain to the body and from ...

Peripheral neuropathy occurs when your peripheral nerves don’t work properly because they’re damaged or destroyed. They might send pain signals for no reason, or not send a signal when you’re ...
