Using implants to electrically stimulate the spinal cord is a clinically approved way to treat chronic pain, and recently scientists have been exploring what these devices could mean for Parkinson’s ...
The selective MAOB inhibitor KDS2010 significantly improved functional recovery in a spinal cord injury animal model. Treated animals showed marked restoration of behavioral scores and locomotor ...
One of the most important functions of interneurons in the knee-jerk reflex is to mediate reciprocal inhibition. This process ensures that the contraction of the quadriceps muscle is accompanied by ...
Recent research demonstrates that small molecule activation of the protein KCC2 can reactivate dormant nerve pathways after spinal cord injury in laboratory mice. This molecule may have immense ...
Most people with spinal cord injury are paralyzed from the injury site down, even when the cord isn't completely severed. Why don't the spared portions of the spinal cord keep working? Researchers now ...
Together with the previously reported statistically significant increase in upper-limb corticospinal signaling, these findings provide compelling neurophysiological evidence that NVG-291 restores ...
A motor evoked potential (MEP) test can determine whether there is any damage along the nerves in the brain and spinal cord. It is a painless procedure but may cause some skin discomfort. An MEP test ...
STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- There is fascinating, world-class research going on at the College of Staten Island, Willowbrook. Maria Knikou, PhD, a neurophysiologist and researcher, is seeking individuals ...
