chlorine and Muscle Spasticity

chlorine has been researched along with Muscle Spasticity in 8 studies

chloride : A halide anion formed when chlorine picks up an electron to form an an anion.

Muscle Spasticity: A form of muscle hypertonia associated with upper MOTOR NEURON DISEASE. Resistance to passive stretch of a spastic muscle results in minimal initial resistance (a free interval) followed by an incremental increase in muscle tone. Tone increases in proportion to the velocity of stretch. Spasticity is usually accompanied by HYPERREFLEXIA and variable degrees of MUSCLE WEAKNESS. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p54)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Selected examples from three series of isomeric (alkylthio)-1,2,4-triazoles were prepared and examined for anticonvulsant activity versus strychnine-, maximal-electroshock-, pentylenetetrazole-, and 3-mercaptopropionic-acid-induced seizures in mice."3.695-Aryl-3-(alkylthio)-4H-1,2,4-triazoles as selective antagonists of strychnine-induced convulsions and potential antispastic agents. ( Dalton, CR; Dudley, MW; Kane, JM; Kehne, JH; Ketteler, HJ; McCloskey, TC; Miller, FP; Ogden, AM; Senyah, Y; Staeger, MA, 1994)
"Current anti-spastic medication significantly compromises motor recovery after spinal cord injury (SCI), indicating a critical need for alternative interventions."1.91Bumetanide increases postsynaptic inhibition after chronic SCI and decreases presynaptic inhibition with step-training. ( Bilchak, J; Caron, G; Côté, MP, 2023)
"At the cellular level, spasticity is considered to be primarily caused by the hyperexcitability of spinal α-motoneurons (MNs) within the spinal stretch reflex circuit."1.72Molecular Identification of Pro-Excitogenic Receptor and Channel Phenotypes of the Deafferented Lumbar Motoneurons in the Early Phase after SCT in Rats. ( Ji, B; Skup, M; Wojtaś, B, 2022)
"Unlike current anti-spastic pharmacological treatments, rehabilitation attenuates spastic symptoms without causing an active depression in spinal excitability, thus avoiding further interference with motor recovery."1.56Rehabilitation Decreases Spasticity by Restoring Chloride Homeostasis through the Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor-KCC2 Pathway after Spinal Cord Injury. ( Beverungen, H; Côté, MP; Klaszky, M; Klaszky, SC, 2020)
