Peripheral Nervous System: Ganglia and Nerves

5.9K
The Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) is a crucial component of the body's neural network, extending beyond the central nervous system (CNS) to bridge the gap between the CNS and the external environment. It encompasses nerves, ganglia, and sensory receptors.
Nerves
The nerve is a bundle of axons that serves as the communication highway in the PNS. Each nerve is ensheathed in a protective layer of connective tissue called the epineurium. This outermost layer safeguards the nerve and supports the...

Self-Concept

1.7K
Self-concept is the cognitive and emotional understanding individuals hold about their identity. It evolves through various developmental stages, beginning in infancy and maturing as children grow. This concept influences how individuals perceive their abilities, interact with others, and manage challenges throughout life.
Infancy and Emerging Recognition
During infancy, self-concept is virtually nonexistent. Babies do not distinguish themselves as separate entities and often mistake their...

Overview of DNA Repair

34.0K
In order to be passed through generations, genomic DNA must be undamaged and error-free. However, every day, DNA in a cell undergoes several thousand to a million damaging events by natural causes and external factors. Ionizing radiation such as UV rays, free radicals produced during cellular respiration, and hydrolytic damage from metabolic reactions can alter the structure of DNA. Damages caused include single-base alteration, base dimerization, chain breaks, and cross-linkage.

Base Excision Repair01:54

Base Excision Repair

26.5K
One of the common DNA damages is the chemical alteration of single bases by alkylation, oxidation, or deamination. The altered bases cause mispairing and strand breakage during replication. This type of damage causes minimal change to the DNA double helix structure and can be repaired by the base excision repair (BER) pathways. BER corrects damaged DNA sequences by removing the damaged base and restoring the original base sequence using the complementary strand as a template.
The first step of...

    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Regenerative Medicine

    Background:

    • Peripheral nerve injuries present significant challenges in microsurgery despite 40 years of research.
    • Current reconstructive techniques often yield useful but incomplete functional recovery.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the current state and future directions in peripheral nerve reconstructive surgery.
    • To highlight factors limiting functional recovery and emerging therapeutic strategies.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of experimental and clinical research on peripheral nerve repair.
    • Analysis of surgical techniques, patient factors, and injury characteristics influencing outcomes.

    Main Results:

    • Surgical success depends on nerve fiber regeneration, influenced by technique, patient age, injury delay, and type.
    • Advanced techniques like nerve transfers and end-to-side neurorrhaphy are increasingly used.
    • Some severe injuries, including brachial plexus and peroneal nerve injuries, remain untreatable.

    Conclusions:

    • Future strategies involve influencing nerve regeneration at the cellular level with growth-promoting substances.
    • Early surgical intervention at specialized centers is crucial for successful peripheral nerve repair.
