Oct in Neurologic Disease
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has evolved dramatically since the first reports of this technology in 1991, and has become an integral part of the ophthalmology evaluation. In addition to providing an indispensible service for the retina physician, the ability to quantify the retinal nerve fiber layer has begun to change neuro-ophthalmic practice. In this regard, OCT has the potential to ch...
متن کاملSexual function in women with neurologic disorders.
Significant gaps remain in our understanding of the impact of most neurologic disorders, including brain dysfunction and MS. Recent methodology used to assess women with SCIs may be used as a model with which to study these other disorders. The availability of oral agents to treat sexual dysfunction in men should also stimulate research using these agents to treat sexual dysfunction in women.
متن کاملGlutamate transporters in neurologic disease.
The neurotoxic properties of glutamate were first demonstrated in 1957 by Lucas and Newhouse, who showed that systemic administration of glutamate to infant mice caused retinal degeneration. Over the last 4 decades, a direct correlation between the neuroexcitatory and neurotoxic properties of glutamate has been linked to activation of excitatory amino acid receptors. This overactivation leads t...
متن کاملSplicing Regulation in Neurologic Disease
The importance of alternative splicing in the regulation of diverse biological processes is reflected in the growing list of human diseases associated with known or suspected splicing defects. It is becoming evident that alternative splicing plays a particularly important role in neurologic disease, which is perhaps not surprising given the important role splicing plays in generating complexity...
متن کاملAntioxidant therapy in neurologic disease.
Free radical or oxidative injury may be a fundamental mechanism underlying a number of human neurologic diseases. Therapy using free radical scavengers (antioxidants) has the potential to prevent, delay, or ameliorate many neurologic disorders. However, the biochemistry of oxidative pathobiology is complex, and optimum antioxidant therapeutic options may vary and need to be tailored to individu...
