Cholinergic inputs to motoneurons in the spinal cord augment focal muscle spasticity in rodents
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Background and Purpose Cholinergic premotor inputs to motoneurons support high levels of motor output when required. However, the possible role of these inputs in pathologically elevated muscle tone has not been characterised. To address this, we examined the modulatory effect of spinal acetylcholine (ACh) on experimental spastic paralysis ...

Effects of Short-Term Dexamethasone Administration on Corticospinal Excitability [PDF]
Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2014 The short-term administration of glucocorticoids increases maximal voluntary force in healthy humans, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. The present study investigated the glucocorticoid effects on spinal and corticospinal pathways and on electromechanical properties of the tibialis anterior muscle in response to nerve stimulation ...

Motor Sequence Learning Under Sleep Deprivation
Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sleep deprivation (SD) compromises declarative memory encoding and subsequent consolidation, yet its consequences for the acquisition of new motor skill learning remain unknown. Forty‐eight healthy adults underwent either one night of total SD or normal sleep and were tested the next morning using a multimodal approach combining psychomotor ...

Intramuscular pathways of maladaptation in overtraining syndrome
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend The transition from adaptive overreaching to maladaptive overtraining and mechanisms through which excessive training load can lead to performance decline. Four interconnected pathophysiological domains are highlighted: neural fatigue, involving both central and peripheral components such as altered sensory feedback and reflex ...

Neuromuscular fatigability with repeated exercise in hypoxia: From single‐joint paradigms to sprints
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Acute hypobaric or normobaric hypoxic exposure accelerates neuromuscular fatigability during repeated exercise. Indices of peripheral and central fatigue are not different at exhaustion in mild, moderate and severe hypoxia compared with normoxia, but task failure occurs earlier.

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Mirror‐reversed vision introduces a spatial discrepancy between visual and somatosensory information about hand position during finger tracing. The informational context of tactile cues significantly modulated the consequences of this visuo‐somatosensory conflict.

Changes in corticospinal excitability during iTMS.
, 2022 Corticospinal excitability (MEP amplitude) during iTMS1.5 (red circles/bars), iTMS4.5 (blue triangles/bars), and iTMSSham (green squares/bars) are presented as raw values averaged over 10 consecutive MEP trials, resulting in 18 blocks (A), or as the ...
