Diagnostic and Therapeutic approach in a Case of Severe Acute Baclofen Poisoning [PDF]
Modern Medicine, 2019 Baclofen is a structural analogue of gamma-aminobutyric acid with central myorelaxant effect. Ingestion of a toxic dose of baclofen induces a clinical presentation with neurological, cardiac, respiratory and metabolic expression, sometimes life ...

Development of GABAergic and glycinergic transmission in the neonatal rat dorsal horn [PDF]
, 2004 Cutaneous spinal sensory transmission appears to lack inhibitory control in the newborn spinal cord, but the properties of GABAergic and glycinergic synapses in the neonatal dorsal horn have not been characterized.

A Review of the Potential Mechanisms of Action of Baclofen in Alcohol Use Disorder
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2018 Baclofen, a GABA-B receptor agonist, is a promising treatment for alcohol use disorder (AUD). Its mechanism of action in this condition is unknown. GABA-B receptors interact with many biological systems potentially involved in AUD, including transduction

Characteristics of long-duration inhibitory postsynaptic potentials in rat neocortical neurons in vitro [PDF]
, 1987 1. The characteristics of long-duration inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (l-IPSPs) which are evoked in rat frontal neocortical neurons by local electrical stimulation were investigated with intracellular recordings from anin vitro slice preparation.

Local Field Potential‐Based Programming: A Proof‐of‐Concept Pilot Study
Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021 Abstract Objectives Programming deep brain stimulation (DBS) is still based on a trial‐and‐error approach, often becoming a time‐consuming process for both treating physicians and patients. Several strategies have been proposed to streamline DBS programming, most of which are preliminary and mainly address Parkinson's disease, a condition readily ...

The use of very high-doses of baclofen for the treatment of alcohol-dependence: a case series.
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2014 Baclofen, particularly high-dose baclofen, has recently emerged as a treatment of major interest for alcohol-dependence. However, baclofen has many potentially dangerous side effects, and the maximal dose of baclofen that may be used is a matter of ...
