Increased nitric oxide synthase immunoreactivity in rat dorsal root ganglia in a neuropathic pain model.

abstract：:Despite the crucial importance of direction of gaze in social interactions, it is only recently that there has been interest in human brain responses to gaze direction. Using full-head magnetoencephalography, we investigated the correlates of direction of gaze in full faces and in eyes-only stimuli, measuring the earl...
