Early changes in muscle atrophy and muscle fiber type conversion after spinal cord transection and peripheral nerve transection in rats [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Spinal cord transection and peripheral nerve transection cause muscle atrophy and muscle fiber type conversion. It is still unknown how spinal cord transection and peripheral nerve transection each affect the differentiation of muscle fiber ...

Analgesic Effects of Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase Inhibition in a Rat Model of Neuropathic Pain [PDF]
Cannabinoid-based medicines have therapeutic potential for the treatment of pain. Augmentation of levels of endocannabinoids with inhibitors of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) is analgesic in models of acute and inflammatory pain states.

Following a spinal cord injury, there are usually a number of neural pathways that remain intact in the spinal cord. These residual nerve fibers are important, as they could be used to reconstruct the neural circuits that enable motor function. Our group

Brachial plexus injury mimicking a spinal-cord injury. [PDF]
Objective High-energy impact to the head, neck, and shoulder can result in cervical spine as well as brachial plexus injuries. Because cervical spine injuries are more common, this tends to be the initial focus for management.

✓Spinal nerve root stimulation is a recently developed form of neuromodulation used for the treatment of chronic pain conditions. Unlike spinal cord stimulation, in which electrical impulses are directed at the dorsal columns, spinal nerve root stimulation guides electrical current directly to one or more nerve roots.

Regulation of nerve growth and patterning by cell surface protein disulphide isomerase
Contact repulsion of growing axons is an essential mechanism for spinal nerve patterning. In birds and mammals the embryonic somites generate a linear series of impenetrable barriers, forcing axon growth cones to traverse one half of each somite as they ...

Adrenomedullin is an Important Pathological Mediator in Progression of Chronic Neuropathic Pain
Background: The characterization of neuropathic pain is maladaptive plasticity within the nociceptive system. Multiple alterations contribute to complex pain phenotypes. Adrenomedullin (AM) has been documented to be a pain mediator.

Lumbar puncture for the generalist [PDF]
The safe and successful performance of a lumbar puncture demands a working and yet specific knowledge as well as competency in performance. This review aims to aid understanding of the knowledge framework, the pitfalls and complications of lumbar ...

Neuronal circuitry for pain processing in the dorsal horn [PDF]
Neurons in the spinal dorsal horn process sensory information, which is then transmitted to several brain regions, including those responsible for pain perception.
