In brief: Tennis elbow is not exclusively the bailiwick of tennis players. For example, pianists and anyone wielding a hammer are prone to the ailment. But regardless of the cause, the first step in treatment is to relieve pain and decrease inflammation.

Modulation of experimentally induced epilepsy by intracerebral grafts of fetal GABAergic neurons.

Systemic administration of pilocarpine to rats induces seizures that resemble complex partial epilepsy in humans. Susceptibility to these seizures is increased by lesion of the GABAergic striatonigral projection. Transplantation of fetal GABAergic neurons, but also of control non-GABAergic tissue, to the deafferent substantia nigra can reduce such lesion-increased seizure susceptibility.
