Following peripheral axotomy, long-lasting changes in the expression of neuropeptides and
their receptors in primary sensory neurons are observed. These changes involve the …

Injuries to the peripheral nerves result in partial or total loss of motor, sensory and autonomic
functions conveyed by the lesioned nerves to the denervated segments of the body, due to …

Neuropeptides are found in specific subpopulations of primary afferent neurones. Peptide
expression can be altered following axotomy or under the influence of nerve growth factor …

Several types of changes have been reported to occur in dorsal root ganglia following
peripheral nerve injury, including loss of neurons and increases and decreases in peptide …

Injuries to the peripheral nerves result in partial or total loss of motor, sensory, and
autonomic functions in the denervated segments of the body due to the interruption of axons …

Neurons confined within the mammalian CNS usually do not regenerate after axonal injury,
while axonal regeneration is the rule in the PNS. It has been hypothesized that this may be …

Alteration in mRNA expression in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons encoding 5
neuropeptides was quantitatively compared in normal rats and in those neonatally treated …

Peripheral nerves injuries result in paralysis, anesthesia and lack of autonomic control of the
affected body areas. After injury, axons distal to the lesion are disconnected from the …

One of the most striking features of the injured mature peripheral nervous system is the
ability to regenerate. The lesioned peripheral nervous system displays stereotypic …

Motoneurons axotomized by peripheral nerve injuries experience profound changes in their
synaptic inputs that are associated with a neuroinflammatory response that includes local …
