Aristides Leão: a birth centennial homage with comments on his spreading depression.
The year of 2014 is the birth centenary of Aristides Azevedo Pacheco Leão (1914-1993), and also marks seventy years of the publication of his discovery of the novel electrophysiological phenomenon, named by him "spreading depression" (SD), soon designated "Leão's wave" or "Leão's spreading depression". This was a remarkable scientific milestone, and the author must be celebrated for this achiev...
متن کاملProfessor Aristides Leão. Much more than spreading depression.
Professor Leão described cortical spreading depression (CSD) in 1944 and changed the way migraine pathophysiology is scientifically conceived. This Brazilian professor and researcher developed his career in Rio de Janeiro. Because of him, the city once became the CSD world capital, attracting scientists from many laboratories around the globe. Aristides Leão was first and foremost a naturalist,...
متن کاملPossible mechanism of tolerance to ketamine-induced blockade of cortical spreading depression
Ketamine (KET) induced blockade of cortical spreading depression (CSD) declines with repeated KET applications in a way suggesting the development of tolerance. Possible mechanism of this process was studied in 31 rats anestheized with pentobarbital. CSD was elicited by injection of 1µl of 5% KCl into cortex at 15 min intervals and monitored by recording the accompanying slow potential waves....
متن کاملThe Neuroprotective Effects of Long-Term Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on the Cortical Spreading Depression-induced Damages in Rat’s Brain
Introduction: Cortical Spreading Depression (CSD) is a propagating wave of neural and glial cell depolarization with important role in several clinical disorders. Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is a potential tool with preventive treatment effects in psychiatric and neuronal disorders. In this paper, we study the effects of rTMS on CSD by using behavioral and histological a...
متن کاملP141: The Role of Microglia in Cortical Spreading Depression in Migraine
Migraine is a disorder that afflicts nearly one tenth of the population. Involving both nervous and vascular system, it has been found as a prominent factor of disability. The migraine attacks may be initiated in the brainstem or may begin peripherally in the meninges while the role of cortical activation preceding an attack is also debated. Although available treatments, more studies on migrai...
