New research describes a key molecular mechanism in nerve fibers that ensures the rapid conductance of nervous system impulses. New research from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School ...

Researchers have achieved patch-clamp studies of an elusive part of mammalian myelinated nerves called the Nodes of Ranvier. At the nodes, they found unexpected potassium channels that give the ...

University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers, for the first time ever, have achieved patch-clamp studies of an elusive part of mammalian myelinated nerves called the Nodes of Ranvier. At the nodes, ...

Scientists at the Mainz University Medical Center have discovered another molecule that plays an important role in regulating myelin formation in the central nervous system. Myelin promotes the ...

UNTIL Prof. Kato had contributed this most important monograph to the study of the nervous system, it had been held generally that a nerve impulse passing through a length of nerve which had been ...

COPENHAGEN, Denmark — British investigators found that a 10-point carpal tunnel syndrome scoring system they developed correlated well with nerve conduction study findings, suggesting that using the ...

ETH researchers have developed a new generation of microelectrode- array chips for measuring nerve impulses, enabling studies of how thousands of nerve cells interact with each other. For over 15 ...

One of the greatest, relatively underappreciated, discoveries in all of science was the discovery of the nerve impulse in the 1930s by the British Lord Adrian. Adrian did win a Nobel Prize for his ...

Bupivacaine HCl 2.5mg/mL, 5mg/mL; epinephrine 1:200000; soln for inj. Bupivacaine blocks the generation and the conduction of nerve impulses, presumably by increasing the threshold for electrical ...
