Peripheral glia development is marked by the choice of the neural crest cells to differentiate along glial lineages. The molecular mechanism underlying fate acquisition is poorly understood. However, recent advances have identified different transcription factors and genes required for the complex instructive signaling process that comprise both local environmental and cell intrinsic cues. Among others, at least the roles of Sox10, Notch, and neuregulin 1 have been documented in both in vivo and in vitro models. Cooperative interactions of such factors appear to be necessary for the switch from multipotent neural crest cells to glial lineage precursors in the peripheral nervous system. This review summarizes recent advances in the understanding of fate determination of neural crest cells into different glia subtypes, together with the potential implications in regenerative medicine.

In search of biomarkers in psychiatry: EEG-based measures of brain function.

McLoughlin G, Makeig S, Tsuang MT.Author information Swartz Center for Computational Neuroscience, Institute for Neural Computation, University of California San Diego, La Jolla, California; Department of Psychiatry, Center for Behavioral Genomics, Institute for Genomic Medicine University of California San Diego, La Jolla, California; MRC Social, Genetic and Developmental Psychiatry Centre, Institute of Psychiatry, King's College London, London, UK.AbstractCurrent clinical parameters used for diagnosis and phenotypic definitions of psychopathology are both highly variable and subjective. Intensive research efforts for specific and sensitive biological markers, or biomarkers, for psychopathology as objective alternatives to the current paradigm are ongoing. While biomarker research in psychiatry has focused largely on functional neuroimaging methods for identifying the neural functions that associate with psychopathology, scalp electroencephalography (EEG) has been viewed, historically, as offering little specific brain source information, as scalp appearance is only loosely correlated to its brain source dynamics. However, ongoing advances in signal processing of EEG data can now deliver functional EEG brain-imaging with distinctly improved spatial, as well as fine temporal, resolution. One computational approach proving particularly useful for EEG cortical brain imaging is independent component analysis (ICA). ICA decomposition can be used to identify distinct cortical source activities that are sensitive and specific to the pathophysiology of psychiatric disorders. Given its practical research advantages, relatively low cost, and ease of use, EEG-imaging is now both feasible and attractive, in particular for studies involving the large samples required by genetically informative designs to characterize causal pathways to psychopathology. The completely non-invasive nature of EEG data acquisition, coupled with ongoing advances in dry, wireless, and wearable EEG technology, makes EEG-imaging increasingly attractive and appropriate for psychiatric research, including the study of developmentally young samples. Applied to large genetically and developmentally informative samples, EEG imaging can advance the search for robust diagnostic biomarkers and phenotypes in psychiatry. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Neuromonitoring for Scoliosis Surgery.

Glover CD1, Carling NP2.Author information 1Department of Pediatrics and Anesthesiology, Texas Children's Hospital, Baylor College of Medicine, 6621 Fannin Street, Suite A3300, Houston, TX 77030, USA. Electronic address: chris.glover@bcm.edu.2Department of Pediatrics and Anesthesiology, Texas Children's Hospital, Baylor College of Medicine, 6621 Fannin Street, Suite A3300, Houston, TX 77030, USA.AbstractThe use of intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) during pediatric scoliosis repair has become commonplace to reduce the risk of potentially devastating postoperative neurologic deficits. IONM techniques include somatosensory evoked potentials, motor evoked potentials, electromyography, and intraoperative wake-up tests. Special considerations for scoliosis repair in pediatric patients include preexisting neurologic deficits and young patients with immature neural pathways in whom neurophysiologic monitoring may prove difficult or unreliable.
