SCRAP AND BUILD FOR FUNCTIONAL NEURAL CIRCUITS: SPATIOTEMPORAL REGULATION OF DENDRITE DEGENERATION AND REGENERATION IN NEURAL DEVELOPMENT AND DISEASE

Scrap and Build for Functional Neural Circuits: Spatiotemporal Regulation of Dendrite Degeneration and Regeneration in Neural Development and Disease

Dendrites are cellular structures essential for the integration of neuronal information.These elegant but complex structures are highly patterned across the nervous system but vary tremendously in their size and fine architecture, each designed to best serve specific computations within their networks.Recent in vivo imaging studies reveal that the

Facial nerve palsy in otitis externa: A red flag?

Otitis externa is an infection of the external auditory canal.It rarely results in facial palsy except in severe cases such as necrotizing otitis externa, which is Hoods a life-threatening invasive infection of the external auditory canal.Early recognition with prompt and appropriate treatment of necrotizing otitis externa is crucial to prevent mor
