| The neurofilament proteins are found in neurons and assemble to form intermediate filaments that regulate axon growth, axoplasmic transport, and axon caliber (Capano et al. [19,22,23] Upton and McComas[24] coined the term "double crush syndrome" to describe a process in which proximal compression of a nerve, involving disruption of the axoplasmic flow, could have an additive effect on the nerve, lessening its ability to withstand a more distal injury. More recently, Butler[65] has linked the neurophysiological concepts related to a mechanical compromise of neural tissue and axoplasmic flow to provide a challenging explanation for the effects of manipulative therapy. |
