We describe the first proteomic characterization of the radial nerve cord (RNC) of an echinoderm, the sea star Marthasterias glacialis. The combination of 2-DE with MS (MALDI-TOF/TOF) resulted in the identification of 286 proteins in the RNC. Additionally, 158 proteins were identified in the synaptosomal membranes enriched fraction after 1-DE separation. The 2-DE RNC reference map is available via the WORLD-2DPAGE Portal (http://www.expasy.ch/world-2dpage/) along with the associated protein iden ...[more]

Project description:Here we present the data obtained from a label-free quantitative proteomics analysis of soluble spinal cord extract derived from a mouse model of multiple sclerosis (EAE) and sham-induced mice. Samples were prepared offline using the FASP approach and then submitted for nano-LC-MS/MS analysis on an Orbitrap Velos instrument. After statistical evaluation of the data, 431 differentially expressed proteins (KS-test, p < 0.05) out of a total of ~1400 unique proteins were identified in the comparative spinal cord analysis (peptide FDR=0.55%).Database search and protein identification: Tandem mass spectra were extracted from .RAW files and searched using the SEQUEST-PVM v.27 (rev.9) (Eng et al., 1994) database program against a Mouse protein database downloaded as FASTA-formatted sequences from EBI-IPI (database version 3.72) which contains 56957 entries (with priority given to UniProt identifiers) as well as reverse decoy sequences to empirically assess the false identification rate. This search program was executed on a cluster computer to match the MS/MS spectra to the corresponding most highly correlated peptide sequences Mass tolerances for precursor (MS) and product ions (MS/MS) were set to 3 and 0 m/z, respectively. Searches were performed with the enzyme selectivity set to trypsin with one missed cleavage allowed and protein modifications included fixed carbamidomethylation of cysteines (57 Da). Match likelihoods were assigned a statistical confidence score using the STATQUEST probabilistic model (Kislinger et al., 2003) and candidate peptide identifications were filtered using an estimated peptide confidence score of ≥95%. A 10 ppm high accuracy mass filter accounting for isotopic shifts in the spectra was applied post-SEQUEST analysis thus improving the fidelity of protein identifications. Protein quantitation: To estimate relative protein levels, spectral counts were transformed into normalised spectral abundance factors (NSAF) as previously described (Mosley et al., 2009). Briefly, this involves dividing the spectral count (SC) of a protein by its length (Mw) and finally normalises this value to the sum of all SC/Mw.

Project description:This case report describes an isolated radial nerve avulsion in a pediatric patient, treated by combination sensory and motor median to radial nerve transfers. After traumatic avulsion of the proximal radial nerve, a 12-year-old male patient underwent end-to-end transfer of median nerve branches to flexor carpi radialis and flexor digitorum superficialis to the posterior interosseous nerve and extensor carpi radialis nerve, respectively. He underwent end-to-side sensory transfer of the superficial radial sensory to the median sensory nerve. Pronator teres to extensor carpi radialis brevis tendon transfer was simultaneously performed to power short-term wrist extension. Within months after surgery, the patient had regained 9-10/10 sensation in the hand and forearm. In the following months and years, he regained dexterity, independent fine-finger and thumb motions, and 4-5/5 strength in all extensors except the abductor pollicis longus muscle. He grew 25 cm without extremity deformity or need for secondary orthopedic procedures. In appropriate adult and pediatric patients with proximal radial nerve injuries, nerve transfers have advantages over tendon transfers, including restored independent fine finger motions, regained sensation, and reinnervation of multiple muscle groups with minimal donor sacrifice.

Project description:BackgroundRadial tunnel syndrome arises due to compression of the radial nerve through the radial tunnel.[1,5] The radial nerve divides into superficial and deep branches in the forearm. The deep branch travels posteriorly through the heads of the supinator where compression commonly occurs.[3,9,7] This syndrome results in pain in the hand and forearm with no motor weakness.[8] This condition can be treated conservatively with splinting and anti-inflammatory medication.[2,4,6] For cases of refractory radial tunnel syndrome, surgical management can be considered. Herein, we have presented a step-by-step video guide on how to perform a radial nerve decompression with a review of the relevant anatomy and surgical considerations.Case descriptionA 68-year-old right-handed woman presented to the Mayo Clinic (Scottsdale, AZ) with the right elbow pain which radiated to the forearm causing significant difficulties with daily tasks. She had been dealing with worsening symptoms for 4 months. The patient's history of gardening and clinical presentation allowed for diagnosis of radial tunnel syndrome. After conservative measures failed and other differential diagnoses were excluded, surgical decompression was recommended to treat her symptoms. The patient's right arm was marked preoperatively between the brachioradialis and extensor carpi radialis longus (ECRL) muscles. The posterior cutaneous nerve of the forearm was identified which allowed for the determination of the interval between the brachioradialis and ECRL. Separation of the two muscles allowed for the identification of the radial sensory nerve. A nerve stimulator was used to confirm the sensory nature of this nerve. The nerve to the extensor carpi radialis brevis (ECRB) was identified and retracted with a vessel loop. Dorsal to the nerve to the ECRB is the posterior interosseous nerve (PIN), which was identified and retracted with a vessel loop. The fascia of the ECRB was divided both longitudinally and transversely and the supinator below was identified. The supinator muscle was carefully divided to further decompress the PIN. Informed consent for publication of this material was obtained from the patient.ConclusionThe patient tolerated the procedure well and reported significantly reduced pain at 7-month follow-up. To the best of our knowledge, video tutorials on this procedure have not been published. This video can serve as an educational guide for peripheral nerve specialists dealing with similar lesions.

Project description:Peripheral nerve injury may lead to neuroadaptive changes of cellular signals in spinal cord that are thought to contribute to central mechanisms underlying neuropathic pain. Here we used a 2-DE-based proteomic technique to determine the global expression changes of synaptosome-associated proteins in spinal cord dorsal horn after unilateral fifth spinal nerve injury (SNI). The fifth lumbar dorsal horns ipsilateral to SNI or sham surgery were harvested on day 14 post-surgery, and the total soluble and synaptosomal fractions were isolated. The proteins derived from the synaptosomal fraction were resolved by 2-DE. We identified 27 proteins that displayed different expression levels after SNI, including proteins involved in transmission and modulation of noxious information, cellular metabolism, membrane receptor trafficking, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and degeneration. Six of the 27 proteins were chosen randomly and further validated in the synaptosomal fraction by Western blot analysis. Unexpectedly, Western blot analysis showed that only one protein in the total soluble fraction exhibited a significant expression change after SNI. The data indicate that peripheral nerve injury changes not only protein expression but also protein subcellular distribution in dorsal horn cells. These changes might participate in the central mechanism that underlies the maintenance of neuropathic pain.

Project description:BackgroundThe posterior approach to the humeral shaft is commonly used for surgical procedures on the humeral shaft. We present our experiences using the modification of the surgical exposure described by Gerwin M. which we have found useful at the time of revision surgery.MethodsBetween 2014 and 2019, six patients who underwent a revision surgical procedure for a nonunion of the humeral shaft where a prior surgical procedure was performed through a posterior incision were included. The approach used a modification of the posterior approach described by Gerwin M. where the lower lateral cutaneous nerve branch of the radial nerve is used to identify trace, mobilize, retract, and protect the radial nerve to achieve adequate exposure of the humeral shaft.Results and discussionNone of the patients had a postoperative nerve deficit.Adequate exposure to aid hardware removal, osteosynthesis, and bone grafting was achieved in all patients.ConclusionThe modification of the posterior approach described by Gerwin M. is useful at the time of revision or redo surgery on the humeral shaft where other bony and soft tissue landmarks are altered to prevent an iatrogenic injury to the radial nerve while providing adequate exposure to treat a nonunion.

Project description:Schwannomas are the most common peripheral nerve tumors; they can present as painful masses or paresthesia. The aim of surgical treatment of a symptomatic schwannoma is total to gross total excision of the tumor along with preservation of the affected nerve and its function, particularly in patients with conserved functionality of a major nerve trunk. This Technical Note describes the technical details of nerve-preserving endoscopically assisted resection of a schwannoma of the radial nerve. This is an intracapsular resection of the tumor, and the risk of nerve injury is minimized.

Project description:BackgroundRadial nerve injuries cause profound disability, and a variety of reconstruction options exist. This study aimed to compare outcomes of tendon transfers versus nerve transfers for the management of isolated radial nerve injuries.MethodsA retrospective chart review of 30 patients with isolated radial nerve injuries treated with tendon transfers and 16 patients managed with nerve transfers was performed. Fifteen of the 16 patients treated with nerve transfer had concomitant pronator teres to extensor carpi radialis brevis tendon transfer for wrist extension. Preoperative and postoperative strength data, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) scores, and quality-of-life (QOL) scores were compared before and after surgery and compared between groups.ResultsFor the nerve transfer group, patients were significantly younger, time from injury to surgery was significantly shorter, and follow-up time was significantly longer. Both groups demonstrated significant improvements in grip and pinch strength after surgery. Postoperative grip strength was significantly higher in the nerve transfer group. Postoperative pinch strength did not differ between groups. Similarly, both groups showed an improvement in DASH and QOL scores after surgery with no significant differences between the 2 groups.ConclusionsThe nerve transfer group demonstrated greater grip strength, but both groups had improved pain, function, and satisfaction postoperatively. Patients who present early and can tolerate longer time to functional recovery would be optimal candidates for nerve transfers. Both tendon transfers and nerve transfers are good options for patients with radial nerve palsy.

Project description:Exosomes are 30-150 nm extracellular vesicles mediating intercellular communication. Disease states can alter exosome composition affecting the message carried and thereby, its functional impact. The objective of this study was to identify proteins present in these vesicles in a mouse model of neuropathic pain induced by spared nerve injury (SNI). Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) were purified from serum four weeks after SNI surgery and the protein composition was determined using tandem mass spectrometry and cytokine array. Proteomic analysis detected 274 gene products within sEVs. Of these, 24 were unique to SNI model, 100 to sham surgery control and five to naïve control samples. In addition to commonly expressed sEVs proteins, multiple members of serpin and complement family were detected in sEVs. Cytokine profiling using a membrane-based antibody array showed significant upregulation of complement component 5a (C5a) and Intercellular Adhesion Molecule 1 (ICAM-1) in sEVs from SNI model compared to sham control. We observed a differential distribution of C5a and ICAM-1 within sEVs and serum between sham and SNI, indicating changes from local or paracrine to long distance signaling under neuropathic pain. Our studies suggest critical roles for cargo sorting of vesicular proteins in mediating signaling mechanisms underlying neuropathic pain. SIGNIFICANCE: Approximately 100 million U.S. adults are burdened by chronic pain. Neuropathic pain resulting from injury or dysfunction of the nervous system is challenging to treat. Unlike acute pain that resolves over time, chronic pain persists resulting in changes in the peripheral and central nervous system. The transport of biomolecular cargo comprised of proteins and RNAs by small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) including exosomes has been proposed to be a fundamental mode of intercellular communication. To obtain insights on the role of exosome-mediated information transfer in the context of neuropathic pain, we investigated alterations in protein composition of sEVs in a mouse model of neuropathic pain induced by spared nerve injury (SNI). Our studies using mass spectrometry and cytokine array show that sEVs from SNI model harbor unique proteins. We observed an upregulation of C5a and ICAM-1 in exosomes from SNI model compared to control. There was a differential distribution of C5a and ICAM-1 within exosomes and serum, between control and SNI suggesting a switch from local to long distance signaling. Our studies suggest critical roles for cargo sorting of vesicular proteins in mediating signaling under neuropathic pain.
