  2. Brain healing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_healing

    Brain healing is the process that occurs after the brain has been damaged. If an individual survives brain damage, the brain has a remarkable ability to adapt. When cells in the brain are damaged and die, for instance by stroke, there will be no repair or scar formation for those cells.

  3. Glial scar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glial_scar

    A glial scar formation is a reactive cellular process involving astrogliosis that occurs after injury to the central nervous system.As with scarring in other organs and tissues, the glial scar is the body's mechanism to protect and begin the healing process in the nervous system.

    Further breakdown of the blood–brain barrier, in turn cause a number of other damaging effects such as swelling, activation of macrophages, and more activation of cytokines and other destructive proteins. Astrocytes can heal partially the lesion leaving a scar. These scars (sclerae) are the known plaques or lesions usually reported in MS.

  5. Thrips - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrips

    This process leaves cells destroyed or collapsed, and a distinctive silvery or bronze scarring on the surfaces of the stems or leaves where the thrips have fed. [16] The mouthparts of thrips have been described as “rasping-sucking”, [ 17 ] “punching and sucking”, [ 11 ] or, simply just a specific type of “piercing-sucking” mouthparts.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gliosis

    Micrograph showing gliosis in the cerebellum. Reactive astrocytes on the left display severe proliferation and domain overlap. Reactive astrogliosis is the most common form of gliosis and involves the proliferation of astrocytes, a type of glial cell responsible for maintaining extracellular ion and neurotransmitter concentrations, modulating synapse function, and forming the blood–brain ...

    Take care not to use too much fertilizer, though, as overfertilizing can cause plants to produce new, tender growth, which attracts thrips. Related: The 10 Best Fertilizers for Indoor Plants of ...

  8. Liquefactive necrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquefactive_necrosis

    The cyst wall is formed by proliferating capillaries, inflammatory cells, and gliosis (proliferating glial cells) in the case of brain and proliferating fibroblasts in the case of abscess cavities. Brain cells have a large amount of digestive enzymes (hydrolases). These enzymes cause the neural tissue to become soft and liquefy.

  9. Nerve compression syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_compression_syndrome

    The symptoms affect just one particular part of the body, depending on which nerve is affected. The diagnosis is largely clinical and can be confirmed with diagnostic nerve blocks. Occasionally imaging and electrophysiology studies aid in the diagnosis. Timely diagnosis is important as untreated chronic nerve compression may cause permanent damage.
