Hypothalamic deep brain stimulation augments walking after spinal cord injury

Léonie Asboth, Grégoire Courtine, Quentin Barraud, Kay Alexander Bartholdi, Laetitia Danielle Philippine Baud, Mark Andrew Anderson, Nicolas Hankov, Katia Galan, Robin Jonathan Demesmaeker, Newton Cho, Jocelyne Bloch, Claudia Kathe, Nicholas David James, Matthieu Pierre Gautier, Jimmy James Ravier, Thomas Haynes Hutson, Viviana Aureli

A spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts the neuronal projections from the brain to the region of the spinal cord that produces walking, leading to various degrees of paralysis. Here, we aimed to identify brain regions that steer the recovery of walking after i ...

Early intensive rehabilitation reverses locomotor disruption, decrease brain inflammation and induces neuroplasticity following experimental Cerebral Palsy

Yohan Van de Looij, Grégoire Courtine, Quentin Barraud, Laetitia Danielle Philippine Baud

Background: Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a major cause of motor and cognitive disability in children due to injury to the developing brain. Early intensive sensorimotor rehabilitation has been shown to change brain structure and reduce CP symptoms severity. We c ...

Recovery of walking after paralysis by regenerating characterized neurons to their natural target region

Bernard Schneider, Grégoire Courtine, Quentin Barraud, Laetitia Danielle Philippine Baud, Mark Andrew Anderson, Katia Galan, Newton Cho, Jocelyne Bloch, Claudia Kathe, Nicholas David James, Marco Milano, Jordan Squair, Matthieu Pierre Gautier, Anna Lasne, Thomas Haynes Hutson, Steven Lee Ceto, Michael Alexander Skinnider

Axon regeneration can be induced across anatomically complete spinal cord injury (SCI), but robust functional restoration has been elusive. Whether restoring neurological functions requires directed regeneration of axons from specific neuronal subpopulatio ...

The neurons that restore walking after paralysis

Léonie Asboth, Salif Axel Komi, Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine, Quentin Barraud, Laetitia Danielle Philippine Baud, Katia Galan, Fabien Bertrand Paul Wagner, Robin Jonathan Demesmaeker, Andreas Rowald, Newton Cho, Jocelyne Bloch, Claudia Kathe, Nicholas David James, Jordan Squair, Matthieu Pierre Gautier, Kyungjin Kim, Thomas Haynes Hutson, Steven Lee Ceto

A spinal cord injury interrupts pathways from the brain and brainstem that project to the lumbar spinal cord, leading to paralysis. Here we show that spatiotemporal epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the lumbar spinal cord(1-3) applied during neurore ...

Cortico–reticulo–spinal circuit reorganization enables functional recovery after severe spinal cord contusion

Bernard Schneider, Léonie Asboth, Grégoire Courtine, Janine Beauparlant, Lucia Florinda Friedli Wittler, Selin Anil, Quentin Barraud, Cristina Martinez Gonzalez, Julie Kreider, Laetitia Danielle Philippine Baud, Mark Andrew Anderson, Galyna Pidpruzhnykova, Elodie Rey, Polina Shkorbatova

Severe spinal cord contusions interrupt nearly all brain projections to lumbar circuits producing leg movement. Failure of these projections to reorganize leads to permanent paralysis. Here we modeled these injuries in rodents. A severe contusion abolished ...

Spatiotemporal neuromodulation therapies engaging muscle synergies improve motor control after spinal cord injury

Léonie Asboth, Jérôme Gandar, Stéphanie Lacour, Arthur Edouard Hirsch, Silvestro Micera, Grégoire Courtine, Nikolaus Wenger, Ivan Rusev Minev, Rubia van den Brand, Quentin Barraud, Simone Ellen Joze Duis, Eduardo Martin Moraud, Pavel Musienko, Marco Capogrosso, Natalia Pavlova, Julie Kreider, Laetitia Danielle Philippine Baud, Andrea Mortera, Jocelyne Bloch

Electrical neuromodulation of lumbar segments improves motor control after spinal cord injury in animal models and humans. However, the physiological principles underlying the effect of this intervention remain poorly understood, which has limited the ther ...

A neurorobotic platform for locomotor prosthetic development in rats and mice

Léonie Asboth, Grégoire Courtine, Joachim von Zitzewitz, Laetitia Danielle Philippine Baud, Nicolas Francis Fumeaux

Objectives. We aimed to develop a robotic interface capable of providing finely-tuned, multidirectional trunk assistance adjusted in real-time during unconstrained locomotion in rats and mice. Approach. We interfaced a large-scale robotic structure actuate ...

Lack of additive role of ageing in nigrostriatal neurodegeneration triggered by alpha-synuclein overexpression

Grégoire Courtine, Isabel Laura Vollenweider, Laetitia Danielle Philippine Baud

Introduction: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons as well as the presence of proteinaceous inclusions named Lewy bodies. alpha synuclein (alpha-syn) is a major constituent o ...
