Brain neurotransmitter changes in three patients who had a fatal hyperthermia syndrome.

Only registered users can translate articles

The authors examined the autopsied brains from three patients who had a fatal hyperthermia syndrome. There was marked hypothalamic noradrenaline depletion in all three patients, severe brain choline acetyltransferase deficiency with nucleus basalis cell loss in two patients, and mild to moderate

Brain choline acetyltransferase activity in chronic, human users of cocaine, methamphetamine, and heroin.

Cognitive impairment has been reported in some chronic users of psychostimulants, raising the possibility that long-term drug exposure might damage brain neuronal systems, including the cholinergic system, which are responsible for normal cognition. We measured the activity of choline

Inhibition of brain glutamate decarboxylase activity is related to febrile seizures in rat pups.

Because previous work showed that in the newborn brain, but not in the adult brain, glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) is notably susceptible to heat, we have studied the possible involvement of GAD inhibition in febrile convulsions and the related changes in gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content. Rats

Compound Heterozygous CHAT Gene Mutations of a Large Deletion and a Missense Variant in a Chinese Patient With Severe Congenital Myasthenic Syndrome With Episodic Apnea.

Only registered users can translate articles

Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMSs) are a group of inherited disorders caused by genetic defects in neuromuscular junctions. Mutations in CHAT, encoding choline acetyltransferase, cause congenital myasthenic syndrome with episodic apnea (CMS-EA), a rare autosomal recessive disease

Brain capillaries and cholinergic neurons persist in organotypic brain slices in the absence of blood flow.

Only registered users can translate articles

Angiogenesis plays an important role during development of the brain and under pathological conditions. The aim of the present study was to observe interaction of brain capillaries and cholinergic neurons in organotypic brain slices. Immunohistochemistry was used to visualize brain capillary-like

Experimental febrile convulsions in the developing rat: effects on the cholinergic system.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effects of hyperthermia-induced convulsions (HCs) on nicotinic and muscarinic receptor sites, choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the rat were investigated. A series of 10 convulsions, evoked between 5 and 16 days of age, had marked effects on the development of

Clinical and Genetic Features of Congenital Myasthenic Syndromes due to CHAT Mutations: Case Report and Literature Review.

Only registered users can translate articles

Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS) are neuromuscular transmission disorders caused by mutations in genes encoding neuromuscular junction proteins. CMS due to choline acetyltransferase (CHAT) gene is characterized by episodic apnea. We report a case of a 12-month-old female patient presented with

Splenic nerve is required for cholinergic antiinflammatory pathway control of TNF in endotoxemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

The autonomic nervous system maintains homeostasis through its sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions. During infection, cells of the immune system release cytokines and other mediators that cause fever, hypotension, and tissue injury. Although the effect of cytokines on the nervous system has
