The updated guideline covers four neurologic disorders: spasticity in
adults, which is muscle tightness that interferes with movement typically following a stroke,
spinal cord or other neurologic injury; cervical dystonia, a disorder of the
brain affecting neck muscle control that causes involuntary head tilt or neck movement; blepharospasm, a movement disorder that causes the eyes to close uncontrollably;
and chronic
and episodic migraine.
Clyde Francks, head of the MPI research group «
Brain and behavioral asymmetries» and Research Fellow at the Donders Institute at the Radboud University, explains, «We think that these very early left - right differences in the spinal cord may act to trigger some of the later asymmetries of the brain, such as the eventual dominance of the left hemisphere for language functions in most adults&ra

Specifically, stem cell scientists at McMaster can now directly convert
adult human blood cells to both central nervous system (
brain and spinal cord) neurons as well as neurons in the peripheral nervous system (rest of the body) that are responsible for pain, temperature
and itch perception.
Jon Storm - Mathisen, Professor of Anatomy at the University of Oslo,
and chairman of the Kavli Neuroscience Prize Committee, said: «Major questions in modern
brain science are how the complex neuronal circuits of the
brain and spinal cord are assembled during development
and how they function in the
adult.
Recent evidence in healthy
adults shows that training with high effort (intended muscle contraction) combined with minimal physical exercise increases
brain - to - muscle command, which helps improve motor unit recruitment
and activation level resulting in muscle strengthening (a motor unit is consisted of a motor neuron in the
spinal cord and muscle fibers it controls).

Neural stem cells are found in
adult or fetal
brain and spinal cord or derived from embryonic stem cells, which have the capacity to become any cell type in the body, or induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, tissue - specific cells that are reprogrammed in the lab to behave like embryonic stem cells.
