Evaluating safe infrared neural stimulation parameters: Calcium dynamics and excitotoxicity thresholds in dorsal root ganglia neurons.

Journal of neuroscience methods
BACKGROUND: As a promising neural stimulation technique, infrared neural stimulation (INS) has recently gained significant attention due to its ability to stimulate neuronal activities without needing exogenous agents. NIR light is absorbed by water ...

Automated segmentation of the dorsal root ganglia in MRI.

NeuroImage
The dorsal root ganglion (DRG) contains all primary sensory neurons, but its functional role in somatosensory and pain processing remains unclear. Recently, MR imaging techniques have been developed for objective in vivo observation of the DRG. In pa...

Neuronal survival of DRG neurons after neurite transection in vitro promotes by nerve growth factor and brain derived neurotrophic factor.

Cellular and molecular biology (Noisy-le-Grand, France)
Neurotrophic factors are growth factors that promote neuronal survival, regulate synaptic function and neurotransmitter release, and promote the plasticity and growth of axons in the peripheral and central nervous systems. This study focused on the r...

Evaluation of Decoding Algorithms for Estimating Bladder Pressure from Dorsal Root Ganglia Neural Recordings.

Annals of biomedical engineering
A closed-loop device for bladder control may offer greater clinical benefit compared to current open-loop stimulation devices. Previous studies have demonstrated the feasibility of using single-unit recordings from sacral-level dorsal root ganglia (D...
