Such a system will enable ethical and more rapid and accurate testing of experimental drugs before the clinical trial stage and advance studies of genetic and environmental
causes of central nervous system disorders.
In many diseases, however — for
example of the central nervous system — it is of decisive importance to transport the active substance as efficiently as possible to the required target site.
The nerve
cells of the central nervous system (CNS), which is composed of the spinal cord, the brain, and the retina, must be supplied with sufficient oxygen and nutrients through the blood vessel system during development and their subsequent function.
This is actually beneficial, I think — it is called «intermittent fasting» and should promote longevity and immunity to bacterial and viral
infections of the central nervous system, which are probably responsible for dementia, Parkinson's, and other diseases of aging.
Scientists have identified a gene that helps regulate how well
nerves of the central nervous system are insulated, researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis report.
«We are combining biologic regenerative medicine tools with other existing medical devices typically used for
stimulation of the central nervous system, in patients with other severe disorders of consciousness,» said Bioquark CEO Ira Pastor.
In this 2012 study: Oral intake of γ - aminobutyric acid affects mood and
activities of central nervous system during stressed condition induced by mental tasks study participants used only 100 mg of GABA and saw mental stress reduction effects within 30 minutes.
«Neurons
outside of the central nervous system have many functions, from relaying sensory information to controlling organ function, but some of these peripheral neural circuits are not yet well understood,» says Ben Deverman, senior research scientist and director of the Beckman Institute's CLOVER Center.
Moreover, in situ hybridization and RNA blot analysis indicate that the 5HTlc receptor is expressed in neurons in many
regions of the central nervous system and suggest that this subclass of receptor may mediate many of the central actions of serotonin.
But just when and how that happened has been elusive, not least because paleontologists thought that the soft, fragile
tissues of the central nervous system would leave few traces in the fossil record.
To find drugs that could specifically stimulate the
maturation of central nervous system stem cells into myelin - producing oligodendrocytes, Dr. Paul Tesar and his scientific team «mined» drugs.
Treatment of disorders
of the central nervous system including malignant, benign and functional diseases, Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) via both Gamma Knife and Linear Accelerator platforms, Stereotactic ablative radiation (SABR), Proton Beam Therapy (PBT), External beam radiation therapy (EBRT), Intensity - modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), Volumetric arc therapy (VMAT), Image - guided radiation therapy (IGRT)
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is among the most common neurological diseases in young adults, affecting 350 000 individuals in the United States and 2 million worldwide.1 Prevailing thought is that MS is an autoimmune disorder whereby an unknown agent or agents triggers a T cell — mediated inflammatory attack, causing
demyelination of central nervous system tissue.2
