momtocole1 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 I am trying to understand what having too much Cam Kinase does to the neurotransmitters in the brain. We just got my son's results the day before yesterday. I keep reading the JNI /Cunningham study and it is so scientific. Can somebody explain in laymen's terms what is happening to the neurotransmitters with too much CAM Kinase. Is it that they fire too rapidly or the brain cells have more movement that usual. I am trying to explain to my sons teacher and a behaviorist so they can understand what is happening in this poor little guys brain, besides the inflammation. Thank you, Judy...

There isn't actually too much CamK. The CamK is too active. The antibodies to strep are stimulating extra neuronal signaling in the basal ganglia. It might help to understand that the basal ganglia is a "monitor and adjust" center for sensory motor signals going into the brain from the body and return signals from the brain back to the body. So the moment new sensory info comes in, the signal is upgraded or downgraded to reflect even minor changes in what the senses perceive in the environment. Abnormally high CamK activity, causes the signaling to be erroneously modified so that the body response is exaggeratedly intense or deficient. But, also the signal going into the brain is being incorrectly modified so the brain is receiving altered signals to respond to in the first place. In short, the part of your brain that is supposed to organize incoming/outgoing sensory/motor signals is in chaos.
