Psychostimulant Drugs and Neuroplasticity [PDF]
Pharmaceuticals, 2011 Drugs of abuse induce plastic changes in the brain that seem to underlie addictive phenomena. These plastic changes can be structural (morphological) or synaptic (biochemical), and most of them take place in the mesolimbic and mesostriatal circuits. Several addiction-related changes in brain circuits (hypofrontality, sensitization, tolerance) as well ...

Alteration in Cortical Activity and Perceived Sensation Following Modulated TENS
IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2023 Over the last decades, conventional transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) has been utilized as an efficient rehabilitation intervention for alleviation of chronic pain, including phantom limb pain (PLP).

The dark side of neuroplasticity [PDF]
Experimental Neurology, 2012 Whether dramatic or modest, recovery of neurological function after spinal cord injury (SCI) is greatly due to neuroplasticity--the process by which the nervous system responds to injury by establishing new synaptic connections or by altering the strength of existing synapses.

Systematic Reviews, 2017 Background Psychosocial factors play an important role in chronic musculoskeletal pain disorders. Although psychosocial stress is likely to contribute to the development of chronic musculoskeletal pain, investigations are limited to work-related stress ...

Modernism/modernity, 2016 “Our brain is plastic and we do not know it” says French philosopher Catherine Malabou. This article argues that Joseph Conrad knew it. In the process it suggests that contemporary discoveries in the neurosciences about the “neuroplasticity” of the human brain can be supplemented by tracing the aesthetic and conceptual implications of the plastic ...

Revista Médica Clínica Las Condes, 2014 SummaryChronic pain and especially neuropathic pain are a major challenge to clinical practice and basic science. Neuropathic pain syndromes are characterised by the occurrence of spontaneous ongoing and stimulus-induced pain. Stimulus-induced pain (hyperalgesia and allodynia) may result from sensitisation processes in the peripheral (primary ...

Neuroplasticity in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Journal of Neuroscience Research, 2002 AbstractRamon y Cajal proclaimed in 1928 that “once development was ended, the founts of growth and regeneration of the axons and dendrites dried up irrevocably. In the adult centers the nerve paths are something fixed, ended and immutable. Everything must die, nothing may be regenerated. It is for the science of the future to change, if possible, this

Protein Expression Dynamics during Postnatal Mouse Brain Development
Journal of Experimental Neuroscience, 2013 We explored differential protein expression profiles in the mouse forebrain at different stages of postnatal development, including 10-day (P10), 30-day (P30), and adult (Ad) mice, by large-scale screening of proteome maps using two-dimensional ...

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019 The calmodulin (CaM)-like Ca2+-sensor proteins caldendrin, calneuron-1 and -2 are members of the neuronal calcium-binding protein (nCaBP)-family, a family that evolved relatively late during vertebrate evolution.
