Motor units with less synaptic plasticity exhibit early susceptibility to loss in motor neurone degenerative disease, and in the SOD1 mouse model of ALS, a progressive impairment of stimulus-induced synaptic sprouting was observed over the course of the disease, suggesting that the absence of synaptic plasticity, and disease-induced synaptic loss are mechanistically linked [ 109, 110].
The bandwidth capacities of the video technology used to film the stimuli and display the stimuli in a progressive format limited our scope in this regard.
Repeated warm laser stimuli produce a progressive increase of the sensation of warmth and heat and eventually that of a burning pain.
Conversely, as the disease is controlled, a decrease in leishmanial stimuli leads to a progressive reduction of lymphocyte activation.
9 27 Obese patients work less hard in a progressive ratio task for sweet/fatty taste stimuli after RYGB than preoperatively.
Habituation represents a progressive loss of behavioral responsivity to a stimulus as its lack of adaptive significance is recognized.
Repeated stimulation, however, unveiled a progressive deficit resulting in markedly distorted Ca2+ transients in response to later stimuli in a train.
Hemodynamic responses (HDRs) from this cluster, when averaged across the group, confirmed a progressive decrease in response amplitude to the violent stimuli but not to the fearful or neutral stimuli (Figure 2A).
The SCT consisted of the following steps: (a) identification and body-oriented perception of specific acoustic, visual and smell-processing stimuli, (b) learning of a progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) training, counter conditioning, and habituation processing.
Cell lines with impaired mitochondrial function (Cy2-I and Cy3-I) showed a progressive deviation of the response to successive stimuli (Fig. 4B).
A progressive decrease in genes involved with response to stimulus was detected over developing larvae in comparison to adults.
