Translational perspectives on neurophysiological responses and mechanisms in blood flow restriction exercise

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 9, Page 4054-4063, 1 September 2026.
Abstract Maintaining corticospinal tract function is crucial for voluntary movement. Exercise using high external loads/intensities is a promising intervention to promote adaptations to the corticospinal tract and improve physical function; however, such loads/intensities may not be tolerable or safe in populations with neurological disorders, motor ...

Transcranial direct current stimulation enhances delayed retention after 5 days of lower‐limb motor skill learning

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 17, Page 7375-7399, 1 September 2026.
Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of the 5 day lower‐limb motor skill learning protocol combining ankle visuomotor practice with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). Participants were allocated to motor skill practice with active tDCS over the leg representation of primary motor cortex (SKILL‐STIM), motor skill practice with sham ...

Corticospinal Excitability Preceding the Grasping of Emotion-Laden Stimuli

PLoS ONE, 2014
Les théories évolutionnistes postulent que les émotions amènent les organismes à agir. Cette étude a examiné si l'excitabilité corticospinale (ECS) est modulée par la valence émotionnelle d'un stimulus à saisir. Le CSE a été estimé sur la base de l'amplitude des potentiels évoqués moteurs (MEP) suscités par la stimulation magnétique transcrânienne (TMS)

Impaired peri‐infarct long‐term potentiation in anaesthetized rats suggests alternative mechanisms of post‐stroke recovery

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 18, Page 7819-7844, 15 September 2026.
Abstract figure legend It is hypothesized that a period of heightened structural plasticity in the peri‐infarct area, triggered early after stroke, opens a time window of heightened capacity for long‐term potentiation (LTP) during which the brain becomes more responsive to rehabilitation training.

Changes in corticospinal and spinal excitability to the biceps brachii with a neutral versus pronated handgrip position differ between arm cycling and tonic elbow flexion

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016
The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of neutral and pronated handgrip positions on corticospinal excitability to the biceps brachii during arm cycling.

Comparisons of corticospinal excitability with and without volitional drive (A) and corticospinal and spinal excitability without volitional drive (B).

, 2014
A. The amount of corticospinal excitability (%pre-fatigue baseline) both with volitional drive (MEP) and without volitional drive (MEP in SP) increased throughout fatigue task performance in both muscles ...

Low intensity focused ultrasound stimulation in stroke: A phase I safety & feasibility trial

Brain Stimulation
Objective: We aimed to determine the maximum safe spatial-peak pulse-average intensity (ISPPA) of low-intensity focused ultrasound stimulation (LIFUS) in stroke patients and explore its effect on motor learning and corticospinal excitability. Methods: We

Effect of Cutaneous Heat Pain on Corticospinal Excitability of the Tibialis Anterior at Rest and during Submaximal Contraction

Neural Plasticity, 2018
Previous studies have shown that pain can interfere with motor control. The neural mechanisms underlying these effects remain largely unknown. At the upper limb, mounting evidence suggests that pain-induced reduction in corticospinal excitability is ...

No changes in corticospinal excitability, biochemical markers, and working memory after six weeks of high‐intensity interval training in sedentary males

Physiological Reports, 2019
A single bout of aerobic exercise modulates corticospinal excitability, intracortical circuits, and serum biochemical markers such as brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF‐1).
