TL;DR: Direct evidence is provided for a potential role of NT-3 versus NGF in the survival of a specific subpopulation of DRG neurons and suggests that muscle sensory neurons, which are probably more prevalent at the cervical and lumbar levels, may be specifically affected byNT-3.

TL;DR: It is shown that a subset of V1 INs differentiates as Renshaw cells, the interneuronal cell type that mediates recurrent inhibition of motor neurons, and that Pax6 and En1 have essential roles in establishing the recurrent inhibitory circuit between motor neurons and Rensaw cells.

TL;DR: This work shows that the production of an alternating flexor-extensor motor rhythm depends on the composite activities of two classes of ventrally located inhibitory neurons, V1 and V2b interneurons (INs).

TL;DR: Ass analyses suggest that regenerated axons fail to conduct action potentials from the eye to the SC due to lack of myelination and administration of voltage-gated potassium channel blockers restores conduction and results in increased visual acuity.

TL;DR: Systemic artemin administration produced essentially complete and persistent restoration of nociceptive and sensorimotor functions, and could represent a promising therapy that may effectively promote sensory neuronal regeneration and functional recovery after injury.
