Journal ArticleDOI

International Union of Pharmacology. XLVIII. Nomenclature and Structure-Function Relationships of Voltage-Gated Calcium Channels

TL;DR: The molecular relationships and physiological functions of these calcium channel proteins are presented and comprehensive information on their molecular, genetic, physiological, and pharmacological properties is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ionic mechanisms of anoxic injury in mammalian CNS white matter: role of Na+ channels and Na(+)-Ca2+ exchanger

TL;DR: The results suggest that differences in the pathophysiology of gray and white matter anoxic injury are likely to necessitate multiple strategies for optimal CNS protection, and suggest that Ca2+ loading might occur via reverse operation of the Na(+)-Ca2+ exchanger.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activated Microglia Contribute to the Maintenance of Chronic Pain after Spinal Cord Injury

TL;DR: An important role for activated microglia in the maintenance of chronic central below-level pain after SCI is suggested and the newly emerging role of non-neuronal immune cells as a contributing factor in post-SCI pain is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determinants of conduction velocity in myelinated nerve fibers.

TL;DR: The conduction speed of any given fiber reflects a number of parameters and is not determined by any single structural characteristic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sodium Channels in Normal and Pathological Pain

TL;DR: The contribution of voltage-gated sodium channels to pain is reviewed, with Na(v)1.7 is of special interest because it has been linked to a spectrum of inherited human pain disorders and is upregulated along pain-signaling pathways after nervous system injuries.
