CENTRAL SENSORIMOTOR CHANGES DUE TO PERIPHERAL NERVE INJURY: ROLE OF DOPAMINERGICS AND OPIOIDS
(East Carolina University, 2022-04-28)Chronic neuropathic pain (CNP) is a disease typically resulting from injury to the central or peripheral nervous system. CNP has a prevalence of 12-15% in the population, but current treatments are not highly efficacious ... -
Dopaminergic modulation of the autonomic nervous system: in vitro and in vivo evidence from the mouse
(East Carolina University, 2012)Central nervous system (CNS) function depends on both the connections between the underlying neurons and neural circuits and their activity. Neuronal activity in turn can be classified as neurotransmission and neuromodulation, ... -
Interaction of memantine with ethanol consumption and dopaminergic function in high ethanol preferring rats
(East Carolina University, 2009)N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists have been reported to decrease ethanol consumption in rodents, but these drugs often produce adverse side effects. Memantine is a neuroprotective and low-affinity, ... -
SPINAL CORD REFLEXES IN A BRAIN-IRON DEFICIENT MODEL OF RESTLESS LEGS SYNDROME: ROLE OF DOPAMINE AND ADENOSINE RECEPTORS
(East Carolina University, 2021-05-04)Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder that severely disrupts sleep. RLS patients regularly present with a condition known as Brain Iron Deficiency (BID), and BID is commonly associated with altered dopamine ...
