Riluzole improves functional recovery after acute spinal cord injury in rats and may be associated with changes in spinal microglia/macrophages polarization.

abstract：:The orexinergic neurons, localized in the perifornical hypothalamic area (PeF), are active during waking and quiet during non-rapid eye movement (non-REM) and REM sleep. Orexins promote arousal and suppress non-REM and REM sleep. Although in vitro studies suggest that PeF-orexinergic neurons are under glutamatergic in...
