The Endocranial Cavities of Sloths (Xenarthra, Folivora): Insights from the Brain Endocast, Bony Labyrinth, and Cranial Sinuses
Folivora (sloths) constitutes a taxonomically rich group comprised of many extinct representatives and a few living forms. The clade also shows...

Delivery of neurotrophin-3 by RVG-Lamp2b-modified mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes alleviates facial nerve injury
We aim to investigate the effect of RVG-Lamp2b-modified exosomes (exos) loaded with neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) on facial nerve injury. Exos were collected...

Comparative analysis of Hmx expression and the distribution of neuronal somata in the trigeminal ganglion in lamprey and shark: insights into the homology of the trigeminal nerve branches and the evolutionary origin of the vertebrate jaw
The evolutionary origin of the jaw remains one of the most enigmatic events in vertebrate evolution. The trigeminal nerve is a key component for...
