Electromyographic analysis of the vertebral extensor muscles during the Biering...
Santana,Ligia Moreira de; Nascimento,Paulo Roberto Carvalho do; Lima,Thais de Sousa; Lopes,Ana Carolina Tocilo; Araujo,Amanda CostaThe purpose of the study was to analyze the electromyographic signal of the multifidus, longissimus thoracis and the lumbar iliocostalis muscles during the Biering-Sorensen test in subjects without lower back pain. Twenty volunteers performed the test on three separate occasions. An analysis of variance detected a difference between the three test times (p = 0.0026). For the frequency domain, it was observed th...
S100ß and fibroblast growth factor-2 are present in cultured Schwann cells and ...
Duobles,Tatiana; Lima,Thais de Sousa; Levy,Beatriz de Freitas Azevedo; Chadi,GersonPURPOSE: The neurotrophic factor fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2, bFGF) and Ca++ binding protein S100ß are expressed by the Schwann cells of the peripheral nerves and by the satellite cells of the dorsal root ganglia (DRG). Recent studies have pointed out the importance of the molecules in the paracrine mechanisms related to neuronal maintenance and plasticity of lesioned motor and sensory peripheral neurons....
