Role of spinal inhibitory mechanisms in whiplash injuries.

abstract：:Alterations in glutamatergic transmission are thought to contribute to secondary neuronal damage following traumatic brain injury. Using an in vitro cell injury model, we previously demonstrated an apparent reduction in AMPA receptor desensitization and resultant potentiation of AMPA-evoked currents after stretch inju...
