Corticospinal Excitability in Action Preparation
In this project, we want to investigate the neural origin of changes in corticospinal excitability in preparation for an action. By stimulation primary motor cortex (M1) with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and using electromyography (EMG) to ...

Corticospinal modulations during bimanual movement with different relative phases
The purpose of this study was to investigate corticospinal modulation of bimanual movement with different relative phases (RPs). The participants rhythmically abducted and adducted the right index finger (unimanual movement) or both index fingers ...

Functional repair of the corticospinal tract by delayed transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells in adult rats [PDF]
Adult rats were trained to use their forepaws to retrieve a piece of food. Destruction of the dorsal corticospinal tract on one side at the level of the first cervical segment abolished the use of the ipsilateral forepaw for retrieval for at least 6 ...

Even though the acute effects of pre-exercise static stretching and dynamic muscle activity on muscular and functional performance have been largely investigated, their effects on the corticospinal pathway are still unclear.

Differences between motor execution and motor imagery of grasping movements in the motor cortical excitatory circuit [PDF]
Background Both motor imagery (MI) and motor execution (ME) can facilitate motor cortical excitability. Although cortical excitability is modulated by intracortical inhibitory and excitatory circuits in the human primary motor cortex, it is not clear ...

Effectiveness of muscle vibration in modulating corticospinal excitability
This study explored the effect of vibration of the forearm extensors on motor cortical excitability and the influence of stimulus duration. Sixteen healthy volunteers between 23 and 42 years old participated in one or two studies. We applied 15 or 30 min of 100 Hz, 0.5 mm-amplitude vibration to the extensor carpi radialis longus (ECRL) muscle. Cortical

Action Video Game Playing Is Reflected In Enhanced Visuomotor Performance and Increased Corticospinal Excitability. [PDF]
Action video game playing is associated with improved visuomotor performance; however, the underlying neural mechanisms associated with this increased performance are not well understood.

Single collateral reconstructions reveal distinct phases of corticospinal remodeling after spinal cord injury. [PDF]
Injuries to the spinal cord often result in severe functional deficits that, in case of incomplete injuries, can be partially compensated by axonal remodeling.
