Common inputs to motor units are modulated by force profile and muscle length

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Groups of motor units receive common synaptic inputs from specialized networks of premotor neurons to produce movement. Here, we test whether common inputs received by motor units in the first dorsal interosseous are fixed or task‐dependent during submaximal isometric contractions.

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.

Corticospinal and intracortical excitability of the quadriceps in patients with knee osteoarthritis [PDF]

Experimental Brain Research, 2014
Deficits in voluntary activation of the quadriceps muscle are characteristic of knee osteoarthritis (OA), contributing to the quadriceps weakness that is also a hallmark of the disease. The mechanisms underlying this central activation deficit (CAD) are unknown, although cortical mechanisms may be involved.

Strength Training with Superimposed Whole Body Vibration Does Not Preferentially Modulate Cortical Plasticity

The Scientific World Journal, 2012
Paired-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) was used to investigate 4 wks of leg strength training with and without whole body vibration (WBV) on corticospinal excitability and short-latency intracortical inhibition (SICI).

Additional Effects of 1‐Hz rTMS Combined With Tai Chi Chuan on Dual‐Task Performance Among Older Adults With Sleep Disorders and MCI: An fNIRS‐Based Randomized Controlled Trial

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
1‐Hz rTMS enhances Tai Chi–induced improvements in dual‐task performance in older adults with sleep disorders and MCI, potentially via increased activation and functional connectivity within prefrontal and premotor regions. ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to determine whether 1‐Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) combined with ...

Neural Circuit Mechanisms of Disorders of Consciousness and Potential Therapeutic Targets of Brain Stimulation

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
This review integrates three hierarchical frameworks—ascending reticular activating system (ARAS), mesocircuit hypothesis, and intrinsic connectivity networks (ICNs)—to update the neural mechanisms of disorders of consciousness (DoC). We highlight emerging evidence for glutamatergic ARAS pathways, a bidirectional GPi–GPe mesocircuit regulating ...

Functional Assessment of Corticospinal System Excitability in Karate Athletes

PLOS ONE, 2016
To investigate the involvement of the primary motor cortex (M1) in the coordination performance of karate athletes through transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).Thirteen right-handed male karate athletes (25.0±5.0 years) and 13 matched non-athlete controls (26.7±6.2 years) were enrolled.
