Abstract:
Behçet's disease (BD) was described as a multisystemic recurrent inflammatory disorder of unknown cause comprising uveitis, skin lesions, recurrent genital, and oral ulcers. Involvement of the central nervous system in BD is about 10-25%. Chorea is defined as a hyperkinetic movement disorder, which can be caused by different etiologies. It was rarely mentioned in the literature as a manifestation of neuro-Behçet's disease (NB). Radiological lesions are predominant in basal ganglia and periventricular white matter. The evolution of chorea in NB is variable in literature studies. We present a rare case of parenchymal NB with chorea.

At the neuromuscular junction, these agents work by inhibiting the breakdown of acetylcholine, allowing it to remain bound to the receptor and bind to nearby receptors. This process leads to repetitive firing of the endplate, causing muscle...

01:26Chemical Synapses
Because chemical synapses depend on the release of neurotransmitter molecules from synaptic vesicles to pass on their signal, there is an approximately one millisecond delay between when the axon potential reaches the presynaptic terminal and when the neurotransmitter leads to opening of postsynaptic ion channels. Additionally, this signaling is...
