Along with the arachnoid layer and the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), the dura and pia membranes help cushion, protect, and nourish the brain and spinal cord. (puertopenasco.rentals)
From a clinical perspective, it would be helpful to identify potential commonalities between gene expression profiles in accessible tissue (such as blood) versus more inaccessible tissue (brain, dura mater, cerebrospinal fluid) as this information could lead to the development of biomarkers for human diseases.

Middle English, from Medieval Latin dūra māter (cerebrī), hard mother (of the brain), dura mater (translation of Arabic 'umm ad-dimāġ aṣ-ṣāfigah, the dense mother of the brain, matrix of the brain) … The pia mater is thinner and more delicate than the dura mater, and is in direct contact with the neural tissue of the brain and spinal cord. (puertopenasco.rentals)
Dura mater - Dura mater is a thick membrane made of dense irregular connective tissue that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. (puertopenasco.rentals)
It is placed through the membrane that protects the brain and spinal cord (dura mater). (medlineplus.gov)
Spinal cord, spinal nerves and dura mater, shown in isolation, in 3 numbered illustrations. (utoronto.ca)
Spinal cord and nerves shown in isolation, with dura mater divided and reflected, and with portion of the cerebellum. (utoronto.ca)
In animal models, it has been demonstrated that the central afferent projection to the trigeminal nucleus, using stimulation of the dura mater, also extends to the C2 and C3 regions of the cervical spinal cord, [ 9-13 ] which have been collectively described as the trigeminocervical complex (TCC).

In this interview, Dr. Scali discusses with me the upper cervical spine and myodural bridge (connective tissue between suboccipital muscles and the cervical spinal dura mater). (chiropracticscience.com)
The objective of this systematic review was to elucidate the existence of soft-tissue connections between the neck muscles and cervical dura mater. (physiospot.com)
Studies reporting original data regarding the continuity of non post-surgical soft tissue between the cervical muscles and dura mater were reviewed. (physiospot.com)
Most scientists accept that it involves activation and sensitization of the trigeminovascular system, which includes the sensory peripheral projections to the pain-producing dura mater, and a central projection to the trigeminal nucleus caudalis and its cervical extension, the trigeminocervical complex (TCC).

Cranial1
Dura mater tissue likely interacts with cranial bone growth and thus may play a role in the etiology of Chiari Type I Malformation (CMI) and related conditions, but it is often inaccessible and its gene expression has not been well studied. (biomedcentral.com)
Fibrous1
Several fibrous strands (10) pass from the lower part of the dura to the sacrum. (stanford.edu)
The dura mater ("hard mother" in Latin) is a very tough and inflexible membrane that is composed of a superficial periosteal layer and a deep meningeal layer. (puertopenasco.rentals)
The dura mater is made up of 2 dural layers, the periosteal and meningeal layer. (3d4medical.com)
Meninx1
The outside meninx is called the dura mater, and is the most resilient of the three. (rxlist.com)
Membrane2
Named after the 'dura mater' - meaning tough mother - Latin for the membrane that protects the brain. (puertopenasco.rentals)
A delicate vascular membrane, the pia mater attaches directly to the surface of the brain. (3d4medical.com)

Finally, there is limited evidence about the existence of a soft-tissue connection between rectus capitis anterior muscle and the dura mater. (physiospot.com)
Rapidly2
With a rat model, it was previously demonstrated that immature dura mater proliferates more rapidly and produces more osteogenic cytokines and marker of osteoblast differentiation than does mature dura mater. (syr.edu)
Examples of in a sentence As regards the inner ear, the endolymphatic duct ends in a closed saccus, imbedded in the dura mater … The superficial layer serves as the internal periosteum of the cranium. (puertopenasco.rentals)
Singular1
There were singular lesions revealed under the dura mater, forming part of the tumour and measuring approximately 2-3 mm in dimension on the surface of the arachnoidea above the area of the bone foramen, which were removed and coagulated, preserving the venous system intact. (hindawi.com)
Upper1
Controversy exists about the possible communication between the dura mater and the upper trapezius, rhomboideus minor, serratus posterior superior and splenius capitis by means of the ligamentum nuchae. (physiospot.com)
Bone3
After removing the bone flap, a lesion localized inside the bone and adjacent to the dura mater was discovered (Figure 2 ). (hindawi.com)
The reconstructive operation of the dura mater and the bone defect was performed with the use of the Neuro-Patch material and the cranioplastic type of material, respectively. (hindawi.com)
This growth generates tensile strain in the overlying dura mater and neurocranium. (syr.edu)
It was therefore hypothesized that mechanical strain generated by the growing brain induces immature dura mater proliferation and increases osteogenic cytokine expression necessary for growth and healing of the overlying calvaria. (syr.edu)
With the use of a three-parameter monomolecular growth curve, it was calculated that rat dura mater experiences daily equibiaxial strains of at most 9.7 percent and 0.1 percent at birth (day 0) and 60 days of age, respectively. (syr.edu)
These findings suggest that mechanical strain can induce changes in dura mater biological processes and gene expression that may play important roles in coordinating the growth and healing of the neonatal calvaria. (syr.edu)
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) can be transmitted through human growth hormone or gonadotrophin administration, dura mater or cornea transplantation, depth EEG monitoring and the use of contaminated neurosurgical instruments. (ox.ac.uk)

Blood6
We present an assessment of eQTLs for whole blood and dura mater tissue from individuals with CMI. (biomedcentral.com)
A joint-tissue analysis identified 239 eQTLs in either dura or blood, with 79% of these eQTLs shared by both tissues. (biomedcentral.com)
Despite strong overall heterogeneity in expression levels between blood and dura, the majority of cis-eQTLs are shared by both tissues. (biomedcentral.com)
In this study, we present tissue-by-tissue analysis of eQTLs separately for blood and dura mater tissue, and a joint analysis across the two tissues simultaneously. (biomedcentral.com)
This article describes the detection of eQTLs for both blood and dura mater tissue for 43 individuals with Chiari type 1 malformation (CMI). (biomedcentral.com)
It receives blood from a vein in the nasal cavity, runs backwards, and gradually increases in size as blood drains from veins of the brain and the DURA MATER. (bvsalud.org)
