Brain afferents to the lateral caudal ventrolateral medulla : a retrograde and anterograde tracing study in the rat [PDF]

, 2003
The ventrolateral medulla (VLM) modulates autonomic functions, motor reactions and pain responses. The lateralmost part of the caudal VLM (VLMlat) was recently shown to be the VLM area responsible for pain modulation.

Sonographic Anatomy and Imaging of the Extracranial Component of the Hypoglossal Nerve (CNXII)

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
The hypoglossal nerve (HN) provides motor innervation to tongue muscles responsible for tongue movement, speech, mastication, swallowing, respiratory functions and management of oral secretions. The intracranial component of the HN can be demonstrated on magnetic resonance imaging and the extracranial component can be demonstrated with sonographic ...

Decoding Gene Expression Changes in Cerebral Tumors: Before and After Radiotherapy

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cerebral tumors, particularly in pediatric patients, pose a significant challenge in oncology. Radiotherapy is a crucial component of the multimodal treatment approach for these tumors. Understanding the molecular basis of these tumors, particularly their response to radiotherapy, is crucial for improving treatment outcomes and patient ...
