Theoretical model of external spinal cord stimulation [PDF]
In this paper, a simple theoretical model of excitation of action potentials of multiple motor pools by stimulating current pulses over the lumbosacral regions of the spinal cord is presented. The present model is consistent with known experimental data.

Aquaporins in the Spinal Cord [PDF]
Aquaporins (AQPs) are water channel proteins robustly expressed in the central nervous system (CNS). A number of previous studies described the cellular expression sites and investigated their major roles and function in the brain and spinal cord. Among thirteen different mammalian AQPs, AQP1 and AQP4 have been mainly studied in the CNS and evidence ...

Theoretical possibilities of head transplant [PDF]
Recently, Zielinski and Sokal [ Zielinski, P., Sokal, P. (2016). Full spinal cord regeneration after total transection is not possible due to entropy change. Medical Hypotheses, 94, 63-65] proposed one hypothesis by considering three assumptions against the spinal cord regeneration after total transection.
