[Blink and masseter inhibitory reflexes in Parkinson's disease].
BACKGROUND/AIM Idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic, progressive, neurodegenerative disorder with prevalence from 60 to 187 per 100 000 persons in general population. The aim of the study was to determine the abnormalities of the blink reflex (BR) and the masseter inhibitory reflex (MIR) in parkinsonian patients, as indices of the functional status of brainstem neuronal network, and...
متن کاملInhibitory role of Gas6 in intestinal tumorigenesis.
Growth arrest-specific gene (Gas) 6 is a γ-carboxyglutamic acid domain-containing protein, which shares 43% amino acid identity with protein S. Gas6 has been shown to enhance cancer cell proliferation in vitro. On the other hand, recent studies have demonstrated that Gas6 inhibits toll-like receptor-mediated immune reactions. Immune reactions are known to affect intestinal tumorigenesis. In thi...
متن کاملInhibitory brainstem reflexes under external emotional-stimuli in bipolar I and II disorders
BACKGROUND Bipolar disorder types I (BD I) and II (BD II) might present different dysfunctions of the cortex and brainstem, as reflected by the second exteroceptive suppression period of temporalis muscle activity (ES2) under different stimuli of external emotions. METHODS This study included 30 BD I and 20 BD II patients, and 40 healthy volunteers. All participants were invited to answer the...
متن کاملAction of Meprobamate on Spinal Monosynaptic Reflexes and on Inhibitory Pathways
Meprobamate was administered intravenously to spinal cats, in cumulative doses of 30 to 40 mg./kg. each. Initial doses may have a variable action on monosynaptic reflexes. At times some reflexes are depressed, while others are enhanced or unaffected. When dose levels of 100 mg./kg. or higher are reached, monosynaptic reflexes, both flexor and extensor, are depressed. Monosynaptic reflexes can b...
متن کاملCalcium Sensing Receptors Mediate Local Inhibitory Reflexes Evoked by L-Phenylalanine in Guinea Pig Jejunum
Amino acids applied to the mucosa evoke inhibitory reflexes in guinea-pig jejunum, but the receptors involved in sensory transduction are still unclear. One promising candidate is the extracellular calcium sensing receptor (CaSR), which is expressed by mucosal enteroendocrine cells and is preferentially activated by aromatic L-amino acids. We tested this by applying various amino acids to the m...
