Top-down mechanisms of anesthetic-induced unconsciousness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The question of how structurally and pharmacologically diverse general anesthetics disrupt consciousness has persisted since the 19th century. There has traditionally been a significant focus on bottom-up mechanisms of anesthetic action, in terms of ...

Curcumin pretreatment and post-treatment both improve the antioxidative ability of neurons with oxygen-glucose deprivation

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
Recent studies have shown that induced expression of endogenous antioxidative enzymes thr-ough activation of the antioxidant response element/nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway may be a neuroprotective strategy. In this study, rat

Spontaneous neural synchrony links intrinsic spinal sensory and motor networks during unconsciousness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Non-random functional connectivity during unconsciousness is a defining feature of supraspinal networks. However, its generalizability to intrinsic spinal networks remains incompletely understood.
