متن کاملMovement Disorders and Neuromodulation
Movement disorders are neurological conditions affecting speed, fluency, quality, and ease of movement. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is used to treat advanced Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, and dystonia. Possible target sites for DBS include the ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus, the globus pallidus internus, and the subthalamic nucleus. High-frequency DBS leads to a kind of ...
متن کاملMechanisms for Neuromodulation of Biological Neural Networks
The pyloric Central Pattern Generator of the crustacean stomatogastric ganglion is a well-defined biological neural network. This 14-neuron network is modulated by many inputs. These inputs reconfigure the network to produce multiple output patterns by three simple mechanisms: 1) detennining which cells are active; 2) modulating the synaptic efficacy; 3) changing the intrinsic response properti...

Background Various neurological pathologies can interest the inferior urinary tract determining bladder dysfunctions of two types: a) dysfunctions of the phase of filling: detrusorial hyperactivity and urethral hypoactivity that cause urinary urge-incontinence,b) dysfunctions of the phase of emptying: detrusorial hypoactivity and urethral hyperactivity that cause urinary retention or difficulty...
متن کاملMechanisms of Bioelectric Activity in Electric Tissue
1. A preparation is described consisting of one or several layers of innervated cells of the electric organ of Electrophorus electricus. 2. Each plaque is multiply innervated and only at its caudal face. The nerve fibers may derive from two or more different nerve trunks. 3. During activity the innervated face becomes negative relative to the non-innervated. 4. The first electrical response of ...
