Evidence that L-arginine possesses proconvulsant effects mediated through nitric oxide.

abstract：:Two voltage-activated Na+ channel blockers, lamotrigine and flunarizine were applied ionophoretically to extracellularly recorded dorsal horn neurones to assess effects on activation by noxious (mustard oil) and innocuous (brush) stimuli. Lamotrigine and flunarizine caused significantly greater reductions in mustard o...

abstract：:Intrinsic circuitry in the barrel cortex has been shown to be readily modifiable in response to changes in the patterns of sensory input, even in adult animals. It is believed that sensory experience modifies synaptic circuits by imposing specific patterns of repetitive presynaptic and postsynaptic coactivity, i.e. by...
