Continuous theta-burst stimulation over the primary somatosensory cortex modulates interhemispheric inhibition.

abstract：:Prolonged activation of brain N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors increases intraneuronal (Ca2+) and nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, and may be responsible for neuronal death in acute brain insults and chronic neurodegenerative diseases. NO can be converted in vitro to toxic hydroxyl (OH) radical. Using microdialys...
