Journal ArticleDOI

Transcranial direct current stimulation and the visual cortex.

TL;DR: In this paper, a non-invasive method called direct current stimulation (tDCS) is proposed to induce prolonged neuronal excitability and activity alterations in the human brain via alterations of the neuronal membrane potential and results in prolonged synaptic efficacy changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

ZFYVE27 (SPG33), a Novel Spastin-Binding Protein, Is Mutated in Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia

TL;DR: ZFYVE27, a novel member of the FYVE-finger family of proteins, is reported as a specific spastin-binding protein, and the interaction by both in vivo coimmunoprecipitation and colocalization experiments in mammalian cells is validated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Why do restless legs occur at rest?--pathophysiology of neuronal structures in RLS. Neurophysiology of RLS (part 2).

TL;DR: Typical RLS symptoms are correlated, such as the sensory symptoms at rest, the reduction of the complaint in response to movement or other physical stimuli, the dominant involvement of the legs, pain, circadian rhythm, and the responsiveness to dopaminergic drugs with neurophysiological features of the central nervous system are correlated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcranial direct current stimulation applied over the somatosensory cortex – Differential effect on low and high frequency SEPs

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on the excitability of the human motor cortex measured by motor evoked potentials (MEPs) after transcranial magnetic stimulation was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diminution of training-induced transient motor cortex plasticity by weak transcranial direct current stimulation in the human.

TL;DR: With tDCS of anodal and cathodal polarity the training-induced directional change of thumb movements was significantly reduced during a 10 min post-training interval, indicating an interference of tDCS with mechanisms of rapid training- induced plasticity.
