Activation of caspase-3 in permanent and transient brain ischaemia in man.

abstract：:Unilateral neglect has been recently shown to be improved following a short period of adaptation to wedge prisms. The present study investigates whether visuo-motor adaptation can generate a bias in normals on line bisection tasks classically used to assess unilateral neglect. Our results show that adaptation to left-...

Telomeres consist of repetitive DNA sequences and stabilize chromosome integrity. Currently, however, the data reported on telomere shortening in PD patients are inco...
