Factors that affect the onset of action of non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2017 Neuromuscular blockade plays an important role in the safe management of patient airways, surgical field improvement, and respiratory care. Rapid-sequence induction of anesthesia is indispensable to emergency surgery and obstetric anesthesia, and its ...

Motoneuron Wnts regulate neuromuscular junction development
eLife, 2018 The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is a synapse between motoneurons and skeletal muscles to control motor behavior. Unlike extensively investigated postsynaptic differentiation, less is known about mechanisms of presynaptic assembly.

THE NEUROMUSCULAR JUNCTION DISORDERS [PDF]
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2003 Neuromuscular junction (NMJ) disorders result from destruction, malfunction or absence of one or more key proteins involved in neuromuscular transmission, illustrated diagrammatically in fig 1. The most common pathology is antibody mediated damage or down regulation of ion channels or receptors, resulting in myasthenia gravis (MG), Lambert-Eaton ...

Age-related deficits in skeletal muscle recovery following disuse are associated with neuromuscular junction instability and ER stress, not impaired protein synthesis. [PDF]
, 2016 Age-related loss of muscle mass and strength can be accelerated by impaired recovery of muscle mass following a transient atrophic stimulus. The aim of this study was to identify the mechanisms underlying the attenuated recovery of muscle mass and ...

Photon Avalanching Nanoparticles: The Next Generation of Upconverting Nanomaterials?
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This Perspective outlines the mechanistic foundations that enable photon‐avalanche (PA) behavior in lanthanide nanomaterials and contrasts them with emerging application spaces and forward‐looking design strategies. By bridging threshold engineering, energy‐transfer dynamics, and materials engineering, we provide a coherent roadmap for advancing the ...

A synaptic nidogen: Developmental regulation and role of nidogen-2 at the neuromuscular junction
Neural Development, 2008 Background The skeletal neuromuscular junction is a useful model for elucidating mechanisms that regulate synaptogenesis. Developmentally important intercellular interactions at the neuromuscular junction are mediated by the synaptic portion of a basal ...
