or swallow‚ and may even in some cases‚ lead to death by suffocation (National Coalition for Adult Immunization). The tetanus toxin affects the place of contact between the nerve and the muscle that it stimulates. This area is called the neuromuscular junction. This tetanus toxin makes the chemical signal from the nerve to the muscle which causes the muscles to tighten up in a huge convulsion or spasm (The doctors from medicine net .com). The first common signs of tetanus are a headache and muscular

Now in the case of nicotine it is known that‚ “ is mostly excitatory‚ inhibitory at some sites‚ activating receptors between some neurons of CNS‚ and neuromuscular junctions in PNS” (CCNY lab manual‚ 2014). According to Adam Cloe‚ Nicotine looks like a neurotransmitter that are called acetylcholine‚ and as a result nicotine can increase acetylcholine signaling through the brain (2011).

People who have spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) usually have this neuromuscular disorder due to deletions or mutations in the survivor motor genes SMA is classified in four types (type I‚ II‚ III‚ IV). To medically treat this disorder‚ supportive care is needed to help the patient no matter what type they are classified with

conducting innovative research on muscular dystrophy and other neuromuscular disorders. In fact‚ the gene responsible for Duchennes muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker’s muscular dystrophy was first discovered here in 1986. That landmark finding revealed one of the first genes ever connected to an inherited disease. We constantly work to improve the care we are able to give our patients. We conduct numerous clinical studies on neuromuscular diseases‚ and we are one of five sites in the United States
