A1.17 Analysis of two essential sub-processes of long distance migration of synovial fibroblasts from patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Zimmermann B1, Köppert S, Lefèvre S, Rehart S, Müller-Ladner U, Neumann E.Author information 1Department of Internal Medicine and Rheumatology, Justus-Liebig-University Gießen, Kerckhoff-Klinik, Bad Nauheim, Germany.AbstractBACKGROUND: Synovial fibroblasts (SF) play a central role in cartilage destruction and angiogenesis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). RASF can migrate from their implantation site through the vasculature to distant implanted cartilage in the SCID mouse model. Interaction of RASF with endothelial cells (EC) is required for RASF-mediated angiogenesis and migration. In this study, expression of the E-selectin ligand CD15s, interaction of RASF with EC via E-selectin as well as kinetics of vascular growth induced by RASF in the SCID mouse model were analysed.

Transcranial direct current stimulation reverses neurophysiological and behavioural effects of focal inhibition of human pharyngeal motor cortex on swallowing.

Vasant DH1, Mistry S, Michou E, Jefferson S, Rothwell JC, Hamdy S.Author information 1Gastrointestinal Centre, Institute of Inflammation and Repair, University of Manchester, Manchester Academic Health Sciences Centre (MAHSC), Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust, Salford M6 8HD, UK. shaheen.hamdy@manchester.ac.uk.AbstractThe human cortical swallowing system exhibits bilateral but functionally asymmetric representation in health and disease as evidenced by both focal cortical inhibition (pre-conditioning with 1 Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation; rTMS) and unilateral stroke, where disruption of the stronger (dominant) pharyngeal projection alters swallowing neurophysiology and behaviour. Moreover, excitatory neurostimulation protocols capable of reversing the disruptive effects of focal cortical inhibition have demonstrated therapeutic promise in post-stroke dysphagia when applied contralaterally. In healthy participants (n = 15, 8 males, mean age (±SEM) 35 ± 9 years), optimal parameters of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) (anodal, 1.5 mA, 10 min) were applied contralaterally after 1 Hz rTMS pre-conditioning to the strongest pharyngeal projection. Swallowing neurophysiology was assessed in both hemispheres by intraluminal recordings of pharyngeal motor-evoked responses (PMEPs) to single-pulse TMS as a measure of cortical excitability. Swallowing behaviour was examined using a pressure-based reaction time protocol. Measurements were made before and for up to 60 min post intervention. Subjects were randomised to active or sham tDCS after 1 Hz rTMS on separate days and data were compared using repeated measures ANOVA. Active tDCS increased PMEPs bilaterally (F1,14 = 7.4, P = 0.017) reversing the inhibitory effects of 1 Hz rTMS in the pre-conditioned hemisphere (F1,14 = 10.1, P = 0.007). Active tDCS also enhanced swallowing behaviour, increasing the number of correctly timed challenge swallows compared to sham (F1,14 = 6.3, P = 0.025). Thus, tDCS to the contralateral pharyngeal motor cortex reverses the neurophysiological and behavioural effects of focal cortical inhibition on swallowing in healthy individuals and has therapeutic potential for dysphagia rehabilitation.
