The Influence of Gliatilin on Excitability of Spinal Motorneurons After Spinal Cord Contusion
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this study we evaluated the influence of gliatilin on the level of excitability of spinal motorneurons and on the functional state of peripheral part of the neuromotor system after spinal cord contusion. Two periods of a traumatic illness were evaluated with electromyography on dog's model. Compare with control animals, in group that received gliatilin we observed a stable level of excitability of spinal motorneurons and functioning of peripheral part of the neuromotor system. It is suggested that gliatilin, being a donor of a glitcerophosphat, could maintain the integrity of neural cells membranes by restoration of the synthesis of phospholipids and carries out a neuroprotective effect.

Compound Action Potential of Isolated Spinal Cord: A Biophysical Analysis to Address Activity of Individual Fibers Following Contusion Injury
Compound action potential (CAP) of spinal cord represents valuable properties of neural fibers including excitability, rate of myelination and membrane integrity. These properties are measured using amplitude, latency and area under curve of CAPs recorded from spinal cord. Here, the isolated spinal cord was set in a double sucrose gap (DSG) chamber and its response to intracellular stimulation ...
متن کاملInfluence of Sexuality in Functional Recovery after Spinal Cord Injury in rats
Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a major clinical condition and research is commonly done to find suitable treatment options. However, there are some degrees of spontaneous recovery after SCI and gender is said to be a contributing factor in recovery, but this is controversial. This study was done to compare the effects of sexual dimorphism on spontaneous recovery after spinal cord inj...
متن کاملThermostabilized chondroitinase ABC Promotes Neuroprotection after Contusion Spinal Cord Injury
Background: Chondroitinase ABC (cABC), due to its loosening impact on the extracellular matrix scaffold, has been used to enhance regeneration of injured axonal tracts after spinal cord injury (SCI). However, cABC thermal instability at physiological temperature has limited its clinical application. The disaccharide trehalose has been shown to increase the stability of cABC in body temperature....
