1-5 The sensory ganglia contain the cell bodies of the sensory nerves and lie alongside both sides of the spinal cord, appended to the dorsal root of each spinal nerve. Their proximal projections ...
A new study published in Nature Neuroscience provides evidence that aging and injury lead to the buildup of senescent neurons ...
Each spinal nerve divides into two branches: dorsal roots and ventral roots. Sensory information, carried by the afferent axons of the spinal nerves, enters the cord via the dorsal roots; motor ...
What is the anatomy of the spinal cord? The human spinal cord is a cylindrical structure of nerve tissue that is protected by the spinal column and composed of uniformly organized white and grey ...
A meta-analysis of non-human primate (NHP) studies showed that adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy often caused dorsal root ganglion (DRG) pathology. There were no clinical effects.
The new device actually targets “dorsal nerve roots,” a bundle of nerve fibers ... no stimulation from nerves beyond the injury site. Spinal stimulation only needs to reach these few nerve ...
By implanting a spinal cord stimulator to stimulate the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) in the patient’s spine, they were able to block pain sensations originating from the damaged nerve.
