Regulation of trigeminal respiratory motor activity in the brainstem.

30 Oct 2009 The trigeminal motor system participates in the control of respiration as well as suckling and mastication. However, the central mechanism underlying respiratory activity in trigeminal motoneurons is not well-understood. In this study, we aimed to ... Read more...

Effect of 12-week tai chi chuan exercise on peripheral nerve modulation in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of tai chi chuan exercise on peripheral nerve modulation in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. DESIGN: Parallel group comparative study with a pre- and post- design. SUBJECTS: Twenty-eight participants with ... Read more...

Inhibitor kappaB Kinase beta deficiency in primary nociceptive neurons increases TRP channel sensitivity.

12 Oct 2009 Inhibitor kappaB kinase (IKK) regulates the activity of the transcription factor nuclear factor-kappa B that normally protects neurons against excitotoxicity. Constitutively active IKK is enriched at axon initial segments and nodes of Ranvier (NR). ... Read more...
