1. The basal ganglia are also the main circuitry through which flow the nerve signals controlling movement. 2. This system could interpret the nerve signals precisely enough to pick up the fine arm movement needed to land a plane safely. 3. Anger can narrow the coronary arteries just when the heart muscle needs extra blood, and even inhibit certain nerve signals that help maintain normal heart rhythms. 4. A system developed in Boston can control or enhance balance by manipulating the nerve signals that help your brain work out which direction is vertical. 5. He believes that deficiencies in DHA, or its substitution by other materials, could impair transmission of nerve signals. 6. Medications are usually aimed at boosting the nerve signals to the muscles or at targeting the immune system. 7. Several years ago, Filler, his neurosurgery colleagues and UW researchers in neuroradiology came upon a method aimed at enhancing nerve signals. 8. Scientists are interested in them because their toxins are extraordinarily specific, blocking pain but leaving other nerve signals intact. 9. Some cells are tuned to particular frequencies of sound, and others convert the sound into nerve signals. 10. Stem cells are general purpose cells that can specialize to perform tasks such as carrying oxygen or sending nerve signals. |
