Some studies have found an increase of Cu in serum and CSF and an increase of Mn in the spinal cord in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), which suggests that this metal plays a role in the pathogeny of this disease (Kapaki et al., 1997). [Pg.19]

Another interesting effect of tacrolimus is its ability to induce neurite outgrowth in vitro [42] and nerve regeneration in vivo [90]. Because this effect is shown by rapamycin as well, which does not inhibit calcineurin, participation of FKBP, but not calcineurin, seems to be important in the neiuotrophic action of tacrolimus. A beneficial role for tacrolimus in a variety of neurological diseases in addition to stroke such as diabetic neuropathy, spinal cord injury, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer s disease, and Parkinson s disease have been suggested [43]. [Pg.433]

Baclofen is a GABA agonist at GABA B receptors and it has a presynaptic inhibitory function by reducing calcium influx. Its indication is increased extensor tone and clonus. Intrathecal administration may control severe spasticity pain. It is used for the treatment of spastic movement, especially in instances of spinal cord injury, spastic diplegia, multiple sclerosis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Its central nervous system effects include drowsiness, somnolence and seizure activity in epileptic patients. [Pg.364]

Succinylcholine produces muscle fasciculation, which may result in myoglobinuria and postoperative muscle pain. The amount produced depends on the level of physical fitness. Succinylcholine causes contractions of extraocular muscles, posing the danger of transient elevated intraocular pressure. Succinylcholine may produce hyperkalemia in patients with large masses of traumatized or denervated muscle (e.g., spinal cord injury). Denervated muscle is especially sensitive to depolarizing drugs because of the increased number of AChRs on the sarcolemma (denervation supersensitivity). Succinylcholine also causes prolonged contraction of the diseased muscles of patients with myotonia or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. [Pg.342]
