P2X3 receptors located at the terminals of primary sensory afferents forming synapses with dorsal horn neurons of the SG (Nakatsuka et al., 2003) facilitate the release of the neurotransmitter glutamate and hence enforce pain transmission (Gu and MacDermott, 1997). In addition, durin ...

Clinical neurochemistry



Clinical neurochemistry is the field of neurological biochemistry which relates biochemical phenomena to clinical symptomatic manifestations in humans. While neurochemistry is mostly associated with the effects of neurotransmitters and similarly-functioning chemicals on neurons themselves, clinical neurochemistry relates these phenomena to system-wide symptoms. Clinical neurochemistry is related to neurogenesis, neuromodulation, neuroplasticity, neuroendocrinology, and neuroimmunology in the context of associating neurological findings at both lower and higher level organismal functions.
