ABSTRACT
Neuronal plasticity explains recovery of function and compensation following brain injury. The ca-pacity for reorganization may be a fundamental property of the developing nervous system is not solely in adults. Important studies have been carried out in developmental plasticity and critical periods, and suggested that neural systems, particularly sensory system, were highly plastic only during a relatively brief developmental time. Receptors are to a great extent either increase or decrease in number, affinity, or response and changes in synaptic regulation, neurotransmitters, local structure, potentiation, adaptability and modifying environment. Developmental plasticity in critical periods emerged from experiments in animals such as conducted in vision, and in humans models by those sensory stimulation systems among the most important. There are clear and consistent reorganizations of sensory maps following manipulation of sensory and other neural activities. In general, neural plasticity and brain recovery occur and functional gains continue for years after the lesion. The new technology to permit evaluation of strength and reliability of outcome measures, for
in-vivo study of brain structure and physiologic functions consist of the studies of neuroimagen, cerebral blood flow, metabolism, and electric fields. Nevertheless, expression of neural plasticity and capacity of neurons to change their function, chemical profile, or structure are the new conceptual framework for contribution to brain restoration.
