Respiratory Muscles
Breathing is usually automatic and without conscious effort; yet our breathing is a complex motor function requiring the coordinated activation of a number of respiratory muscles that span from our heads to our abdomen. Some of our respiratory muscles serve to pump air into and out of our lungs (ventilation). These pump muscles act on the thoracic and abdominal walls and are all skeletal muscles. Other respiratory muscles in our bodies control the caliber of the passageway for air to enter our lungs. These airway muscles include skeletal muscles of the head (e.g., tongue and suprahyoid muscles) and neck (infrahyoid, pharyngeal and laryngeal muscles), as well as smooth muscles that line our t...

Techniques in Confocal Microscopy
As part of the Reliable Lab Solutions series, Techniques in Confocal Microscopy brings together chapters from volumes 302, 307 and 356 of Methods in Enzymology. It documents many diverse uses for confocal microscopy in disciplines that broadly span biology. - Documents many diverse uses for confocal microscopy in disciplines that broadly span biology - The methods presented include shortcuts and conveniences not included in the initial publications - Techniques are described in a context that allows comparisons to other related methodologies - Methodologies are laid out in a manner that stresses their general applicability and reports their potential limitations
Chernick-Mellins Basic Mechanisms of Pediatric Respiratory Disease
This second edition of the landmark 1991 text, Basic Mechanisms of Pediatric Respiratory Disease reviews the importance of the integrations of molecular, cellular and physiologic strategies in the development of a new understanding of pediatric respiratory disorders. It provides state-of-the-art information about fundamental mechanisms underlying ......
Developmental Neurobiology of Breathing
This monograph provides a comprehensive basis for understanding the complex interactions that take place between synaptic input, cellular properties, and the oscillatory output of a neural network, especially in the maturing or developing nervous system. Emphasis is placed on drawing a parallel betw
Handbook of Animal Models in Neurological Disorders
Handbook of Animal Models in Neurological Disorders will better readers' understanding of a large variety of animal models and their applicability in studying a number of neurological disorders. Featuring sections on brain injury, stroke and neuroinflammation, this volume discusses in detail the utility, success and pitfalls of multiple models for each condition. Multiple disorders are covered, ranging from neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and ALS, to multiple sclerosis, headache, migraine, and others. With expert authors, this book has applicability for anyone pursuing neuroscience or biomedical research working to better understand, study and ultimately treat neurological dysfunction. - Summarizes animal models for a variety of neurological conditions - Contains chapter abstracts, key facts, a dictionary and a summary - Covers both neurodegenerative diseases and other neurological conditions - Compares and contrasts different models and experimental systems - Includes sections on Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, brain injury, migraine, multiple sclerosis, and more
Respiratory Control
The fourth Oxford Conference entitled "Control of Breathing: A Model ing Perspective" was held in September of 1988 at Grand Lake, Colorado. Grand Lake, also called Spirit Lake, was chosen for the fourth meet i ng so as to continue the meditative atmosphere of the previ ous meetings and to put the conference on a new higher plane (8,500 feet). The weather, as promised, exhibited its random-like rain showers. The snow report became essential for traveling the 12,000 foot passes to and from Grand Lake. Even the servi ces such as telephone and elect ri city proved to be uncertain. In all, the overall atmosphere of Spirit Lake contributed to an uninhibited free-style of presentation and interact...
Sarcopenia – Age-Related Muscle Wasting and Weakness
Some of the most serious consequences of aging are its effects on skeletal muscle. ‘Sarcopenia’, the progressive age-related loss of muscle mass and associated muscle weakness, renders frail elders susceptible to serious injury from sudden falls and fractures and at risk for losing their functional independence. Not surprisingly, sarcopenia is a significant public health problem throughout the developed world. There is an urgent need to better understand the neuromuscular mechanisms underlying age-related muscle wasting and to develop therapeutic strategies that can attenuate, prevent, or ultimately reverse sarcopenia. Significant research and development in academic and research institu...
