Bilateral transient changes in thalamic nucleus ventroposterior lateralis after thoracic hemisection in the rat.
We made simultaneous bilateral recordings of unit activity in the nucleus ventroposterior lateralis (VPL) in intact rats and after acute and chronic left thoracic hemisection. We observed an immediate bilateral decline in multireceptive units, reflecting a loss of nociceptive input on the lesion side and a loss of low-threshold inputs contralaterally. Unit properties were restored to normal by ...

We made simultaneous bilateral recordings of unit activity in the n. 9 ventroposterior lateralis (VPL) in intact rats, and after acute and chronic left thoracic 10 hemisection. We observed an immediate bilateral decline in multireceptive units, 11 reflecting a loss of nociceptive input on the lesion side and a loss of low threshold 12 inputs contralaterally. Unit properties were restored to nor...
متن کاملRole of the AMPA receptors of paragigantocellularis lateralis nucleus in the inflammatory pain modulation in male rat
Introduction: The 17β-estradiol acts as a neurosteroid in the brain and modulates nociception by binding to the estrogen receptors and also by allosteric interaction with other membrane-bound receptors like glutamate receptors. Paragigantocellularis lateralis nucleus (LPGi) is one of the important brain regions implicated in the pain modulation. So, this study was designed to evaluate the ...
متن کاملInterlimb Coordination After a Thoracic Hemisection in Rats
An important role for sensory input in the motor performance of spinal cord injured (SCI) humans and animals has been established. For example, loading of the hind limbs during assisted locomotion on a treadmill improves the stepping ability of SCI patients and of complete spinal cord transected cats and rats. In our laboratories we are now using robotic devices to control and modulate the amou...
متن کاملCognitive improvement after long-term electrical stimulation of bilateral anterior thalamic nucleus in refractory epilepsy patients
INTRODUCTION The cognitive and behavioral effect of deep brain stimulation (DBS) administered to the deep cerebral nuclei for epilepsy treatment is unknown. We investigated the cognitive outcomes at least 12 months after DBS to the bilateral anterior thalamic nucleus (ATN) for controlling intractable epilepsy. METHODS Nine patients with intractable epilepsy who were not candidates for resecti...
