Adaptation of tape removal test for measurement of sensitivity in perineal area of rat
2020, Experimental NeurologyCitation Excerpt :A standard experimental model of spinal cord injury in rodents is the dorsal column lesion. This lesion disrupts ascending sensory fibres from the dorsal root ganglia carrying tactile information, discriminatory touch, vibration and proprioception (Sengul and Watson, 2015). There are several behavioural tests for assessment of sensation in the limbs but none as yet for the perineal area.
Supraspinal respiratory plasticity following acute cervical spinal cord injury
2017, Experimental NeurologyCitation Excerpt :The loss of ascending (spinobulbar) projections to the brainstem following C2Hx has not been well characterized. C2Hx will compromise afferent feedback from sensory receptors and spino-reticular pathways which modulate brainstem activity (Sengul and Watson, 2015; Watson et al., 2009). Overall, little is known about how these ascending pathways impact the activity of the respiratory neurons in the medulla in the uninjured spinal cord, let alone following injury.
