Neuroendocrinological signs of central neurotransmission disorders

, 1983
Modulation mechanisms of nociception have several neurotransmission interactions that are impaired in the disorder of painful perceptions. Neurotransmission changes may show up in several ways on the clinical level.

The effects of whole-body vibration therapy on immune and brain functioning: current insights in the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms

Frontiers in Neurology
Whole-body vibration (WBV) therapy is a way of passive exercise in which subjects are exposed to mild and well-controlled mechanical vibrations through a vibrating platform.

Field effects in the CNS play functional roles

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2010
An endogenous electrical field effect, i.e. ephaptic transmission, occurs when an electric field associated with activity occurring in one neuron polarizes the membrane of another neuron.

A systemic analysis of the ideas immanent in neuromodulation

, 2008
This thesis focuses on the phenomena of neuromodulation — these are a set of diffuse chemical pathways that modify the properties of neurons and act in concert with the more traditional pathways mediated by synapses (neurotransmission).

ATP potentiates neurotransmission in the rat trigeminal subnucleus caudalis

, 2006
Ionotropic purine receptors (P2X) have been implicated in nociceptive neurotransmission. In this study, we examine the actions of the P2X receptor agonist α,β methylene adenosine 5'-triphosphate on excitatory neurotransmission in neurons in the deep and ...

The Nucleus of the Solitary Tract and the coordination of respiratory and sympathetic activities

Frontiers in Physiology, 2014
It is well known that breathing introduces rhythmical oscillations in the heart rate and arterial pressure levels. Sympathetic oscillations coupled to the respiratory activity have been suggested as an important homeostatic mechanism optimizing tissue ...

Neurotransmission systems in Parkinson’s disease

, 2017
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is histologically characterized by the accumulation of α-synuclein particles, known as Lewy bodies. The second most common neurodegenerative disorder, PD is widely known because of the typical motor manifestations of active ...

Role of adenosine in noradrenergic neurotransmission in spontaneously hypertensive rats

, 1987
The purpose of this study was to compare the in vivo role of adenosine as a modulator of noradrenergic neurotransmission in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) and Wistar-Kyoto control rat (WKY).

Glycine receptor autoantibodies disrupt inhibitory neurotransmission [PDF]

, 2019
Chloride-permeable glycine receptors have an important role in fast inhibitory neurotransmission in the spinal cord and brainstem. Human immunoglobulin G (IgG) autoantibodies to glycine receptors are found in a substantial proportion of patients with ...

Integrative neurobiological mechanisms of acupuncture in post-stroke cognitive impairment: from neurotransmission to brain network remodeling

Frontiers in Neurology
Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is a prevalent sequela of stroke that severely limits recovery and quality of life. Accumulating evidence indicates that acupuncture exerts significant neuroprotective and cognitive-enhancing effects in PSCI ...
