Neuromuscular prehabilitation to prevent osteoarthritis after a traumatic joint injury.
Post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) is a process resulting from direct forces applied to a joint that cause injury and degenerative changes. An estimated 12% of all symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip, knee, and ankle can be attributed to a post-traumatic cause. Neuromuscular prehabilitation is the process of improving neuromuscular function to prevent development of PTOA after an initi...
متن کاملMicrofluidic Models of Neuromuscular Junctions
Traditional culture platforms like petri dishes and well plates do not offer the liberty to fine-tune the events at micro scale level. Coincidently, this freedom is bestowed upon us by the emerging technology termed as microfluidics. The science and technology of microfluidics helps in controlling the amount of reagent used, fluid flow, co-culture by compartmentalization and cellcell interactio...
متن کاملInfants’ sensitivity to shading and line junctions
We examined the sensitivity to shading and line junction cues in human infants aged 5-8 months using computer-generated displays containing a rectangular-wave grating and a serrated aperture. In Experiment 1, infants were presented with a pair of displays: a two-dimensional to three-dimensional (2D-3D) display, alternating between 2D and 3D images, and a 2D-2D display, alternating between two 2...
متن کاملAxons Compete for Neuromuscular Junctions
During development, motor neurons in the spinal cord send out axons to connect with muscle. Each axon creates a profusion of branches, each with the potential to innervate the muscle fiber at its neuromuscular junction (NMJ). There are so many excess branches that in the immature animal, axon terminals from multiple neurons crowd each junction. But in short order, the excess is pared away, and ...
متن کاملFormation of neuromuscular junctions in embryonic cultures.
Formation of neuromuscular junctions in embryonic cultures has been reviewed. Anatomical and electrophysiological evidence has been presented which demonstrates the formation de novo of synaptic contacts between nerve and muscle in culture; in (1) organ cultures of spinal cord explanted intact with attached myotomes, (2) organ cultures of in vitro coupled explants of spinal cord and skeletal mu...
