Changes in Urinary Bladder Structure and Systemic Inflammation Response Following Incomplete Transection versus Contusion Spinal Cord Injury in Rat Model
Objective- The current study was conducted to evaluate changes in the urinary bladder structure and leukocyte profile as an important index of the systemic inflammation response for two different types of spinal cord injury (SCI) in a rat model. Design- Experimental Study.Animals- Forty adult healthy female Sprague-Dawley rats.<br /...
متن کاملCharacteristics and mechanisms of locomotion induced by intraspinal microstimulation and dorsal root stimulation in spinal cats.
Intraspinal microstimulation (ISMS) through a single microelectrode can induce locomotion in cats spinalized at T(13) 1 wk before (untrained) or after 3-5 wk of treadmill training. Here we study the optimal parameters of ISMS and the characteristics of locomotion evoked. ISMS was applied in the dorsal region of segments L(3)-S(1) at different lateralities (midline to 2.5 mm) and after an intrav...
متن کاملPlasticity and Activation of Spared Intraspinal Respiratory Circuits Following Spinal Cord Injury
52 Mid-cervical spinal interneurons form a complex and diffuse network and may be involved in53modulating phrenic motor output. The intent of the current work was to enable a better54understanding of mid-cervical “network level” connectivity by pairing the neurophysiological55multi-electrode array (MEA) data with histological verification of the recording locations. ...
متن کاملReanimating the arm and hand with intraspinal microstimulation.
To date, there is no effective therapy for spinal cord injury, and many patients could benefit dramatically from at least partial restoration of arm and hand function. Despite a substantial body of research investigating intraspinal microstimulation (ISMS) in frogs, rodents and cats, little is known about upper-limb responses to cervical stimulation in the primate. Here, we show for the first t...
متن کاملTissue calcium levels following spinal cord transection in rats.
Adult rats were subjected to midthoracic spinal cord transections. Three segments of spinal cord, each approximately 5 mm in length, were removed from each animal at intervals from 5 min to 48 h postlesion; one from the lesion site and one each immediately rostral and caudal to the transection. Total tissue calcium concentrations ([Ca]t) for each spinal cord segment were determined using atomic...
