Development of galanin-containing nerve fibres in rat tibia.

4 Nov 2009 Galanin exerts tonic inhibition of nociceptive input to the central nervous system. Recently, this peptide was demonstrated in several neuronal and non-neuronal structures in bones and joints. In this study, the time of appearance and topographic ... Read more...

Cytokines decrease expression of interleukin-6 signal transducer and leptin receptor in central nervous system glia.

30 Oct 2009 Multiple sclerosis (MS) lesion formation is modulated by cytokines secreted within the central nervous system (CNS). Th1 lymphocytes and monocyte/macrophages (MM) likely induce lesion formation, whereas Th2 lymphocytes may inhibit formation. To ... Read more...

Propofol inhibits aquaporin 4 expression through a protein kinase C-dependent pathway in an astrocyte model of cerebral ischemia/reoxygenation.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Aquaporin 4 (AQP4) plays a key role in maintaining water balance in the central nervous system, and its dysfunction may lead to brain edema. Previous studies have suggested that propofol may be involved in neuroprotection by preventing ... Read more...
