Hyperinsulinism in infancy: from basic science to clinical disease.
Ion channelopathies have now been described in many well-characterized cell types including neurons, myocytes, epithelial cells, and endocrine cells. However, in only a few cases has the relationship between altered ion channel function, cell biology, and clinical disease been defined. Hyperinsulinism in infancy (HI) is a rare, potentially lethal condition of the newborn and early childhood. Th...
متن کاملNeuroprotection in Neurodegenerative Disease: From Basic Science to Clinical Applications
The limitations of current pharmacological treatments of neurodegenerative disease have led to the extensive investigation of novel compounds and nonpharmacological approaches to modify the course of these conditions, whilst reducing drug side effects. The definition of neuroprotection is complex and involves both preventing cell death and restoring function to damaged neurons, as well as resto...
متن کاملTranscutaneous electrical nerve stimulation: basic science mechanisms and clinical effectiveness.
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is used clinically by a variety of health care professionals for the reduction of pain. Clinical effectiveness of TENS is controversial, with some studies supporting whereas others refute its clinical use. Although used by health professionals for decades, the mechanisms by which TENS produces analgesia or reduces pain are only recently being e...
متن کاملTrichothiodystrophy: from basic mechanisms to clinical implications.
Trichothiodystrophy (TTD) is an autosomal recessive disorder with symptoms affecting several tissues and organs. The most relevant features are hair abnormalities, physical and mental retardation, ichthyosis, signs of premature aging and cutaneous photosensitivity. The clinical spectrum of TTD varies widely from patients with only brittle, fragile hair to patients with the most severe neuroecto...
متن کاملCannabinoid-Induced Hyperemesis: A Conundrum—From Clinical Recognition to Basic Science Mechanisms
Cannabinoids are used clinically on a subacute basis as prophylactic agonist antiemetics for the prevention of nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapeutics. Cannabinoids prevent vomiting by inhibition of release of emetic neurotransmitters via stimulation of presynaptic cannabinoid CB₁ receptors. Cannabis-induced hyperemesis is a recently recognized syndrome associated with chronic cannabis ...
