Cognitive and behavioral deficits arising from neurodegeneration and traumatic brain injury: a model for the underlying role of focal axonal swellings in neuronal networks with plasticity
Rudy, Samuel; Maia, Pedro D.; Kutz, J. Nathan (Open Access Text, 2016-03-28)**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: Neurodegenerative diseases and traumatic brain injury, whose hallmark features are the presence of focal axonal swellings (FAS), are leading causes of cognitive ... -
Compromised axonal functionality after neurodegeneration, concussion and/or traumatic brain injury
Maia, Pedro; Kutz, J. Nathan (Springer Nature, 2014-06)**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: Axonal swellings are almost universal in neurodegenerative diseases of the central nervous system, including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. Concussions and ... -
