Forced Disruption of Anatomy Education in Australia and New Zealand: An Acute Response to the Covid-19 Pandemic.
Nalini Pather,Phil Blyth,Jamie A. Chapman,Manisha R. Dayal,Natasha A.M.S. Flack,Quentin A. Fogg,Rodney A. Green,Anneliese Hulme,Ian Johnson,Amanda J. Meyer,John W. Morley,Peter J. Shortland,Goran Štrkalj,Mirjana Štrkalj,Krisztina Valter,Alexandra L. Webb,Stephanie J. Woodley,Michelle D. Lazarus +17 more
TL;DR: This study on anatomy education disruption at pandemic onset within Australia and New Zealand adopts a social constructivist lens and reveals loss of integrated “hands‐on” experiences, and impacts on workload, traditional roles, students, pedagogy, and anatomists' personal educational philosophies.

Axotomy results in major changes in BDNF expression by dorsal root ganglion cells : BDNF expression in large trkB and trkC cells, in pericellular baskets, and in projections to deep dorsal horn and dorsal column nuclei
TL;DR: The results identify several novel targets for BDNF and imply that it acts locally in both autocrine and paracrine modes, as well as centrally in a synaptic mode, to modulate the response of somatosensory pathways in nerve injury.

Dynamic Pattern of Reg-2 Expression in Rat Sensory Neurons after Peripheral Nerve Injury
TL;DR: The dynamic expression of Reg-2 in rat sensory neurons after peripheral nerve injury is reported and the selective expression within IB4/P2X3 cells, and the dynamic shift from small to large cells, is unique among DRG peptides and suggests thatreg-2 has a distinctive role in the injury response.

Neurochemical characterization of neuronal populations expressing protein kinase C gamma isoform in the spinal cord and gracile nucleus of the rat.
TL;DR: The first report of PKCgamma cells in the dorsal column nuclei of the adult rat is provided, indicating an alteration in the sensory activation pattern in these neurones after injury.

Spinal cord compression and dorsal root injury cause up‐regulation of activating transcription factor‐3 in large‐diameter dorsal root ganglion neurons
Wenlong Huang,D. Robson,M C Liu,V.R. King,Sharon Averill,Peter J. Shortland,John V. Priestley +6 more
TL;DR: The data show for the first time that ATF3 is up‐regulated after spinal cord and dorsal root injury, but that this up‐regulation is confined to the large‐diameter cell population.
