β-Estradiol 17-acetate enhances the in vitro vitality of endothelial cells isolated from the brain of patients subjected to neurosurgery by Sonia Guzzo, Pasquale De Bonis, Barbara Pavan, Luciano Fadiga

“…We hypothesized that the autologous origin of human brain microvascular endothelial cells (hBMECs) is the first requirement for the suitable coating to prevent the glial inflammatory response triggered by foreign neuroprosthetics. Therefore, this study established a new procedure to preserve the in vitro viability of hBMECs isolated from gray and white matter specimens taken from neurosurgery patients. …”

Characterization of Active Electrode Yield for Intracortical Arrays: Awake versus Anesthesia by Brandon Sturgill, Rahul Radhakrishna, Teresa Thuc Doan Thai, Sourav S. Patnaik, Jeffrey R. Capadona, Joseph J. Pancrazio

“…Intracortical microelectrode arrays are used for recording neural signals at single-unit resolution and are promising tools for studying brain function and developing neuroprosthetics. Research is being done to increase the chronic performance and reliability of these probes, which tend to decrease or fail within several months of implantation. …”

CMOS Analogue Velocity-Selective Neural Processing System by Shamin Sadrafshari, Sebastian Simmich, Benjamin Metcalfe, Jon Prager, Nicolas Granger, Nick Donaldson, Robert Rieger, John Taylor

“…Velocity-selective recording (VSR) of electroneurogram (ENG) signals is a frequently utilized technology in the field of neural recording with applications in clinical medicine and neuroprosthetics. VSR classifies excited axon populations in terms of their conduction velocities using multiple recordings of the same ENG signal and addition of the recording channels after introducing controlled time delays. …”

Gating of Tactile Information through Gamma Band during Passive Arm Movement in Awake Primates by Weiguo eSong, Joseph Thachil Francis

“…Sensory gating plays an important role in preventing redundant information from reaching the cortex, which should be considered when designing somatosensory neuroprosthetics. Gating can occur at several levels within the sensorimotor pathway, while the underlying mechanism is not yet fully understood. …”
