The Journal of Physiology, 2010 This is the first study to report on the increase in motoneurone excitability during fictive scratch in adult decerebrate cats. Intracellular recordings from antidromically identified motoneurones revealed a decrease in the voltage threshold for spike initiation (Vth), a suppression of motoneurone afterhyperpolarization and activation of voltage ...

What Is It Like to Be a Bass? Red Herrings, Fish Pain and the Study of Animal Sentience
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022 Debates around fishes' ability to feel pain concern sentience: do reactions to tissue damage indicate evaluative consciousness (conscious affect), or mere nociception? Thanks to Braithwaite's research leadership, and concerns that current practices could

Stepping Responses to Treadmill Perturbations vary with Severity of Motor Deficits in Human SCI [PDF]
, 2018 In this study, we investigated the responses to tread perturbations during human stepping on a treadmill. Our approach was to test the effects of perturbations to a single leg using a split-belt treadmill in healthy participants and in participants with ...

Stretch reflex improves rolling stability during hopping of a decerebrate system [PDF]
, 2013 When humans hop, attitude recovery can be observed in both the sagittal and frontal planes. While it is agreed that the brain plays an important role in leg placement, the role of low-level feedback (the stretch reflex) on frontal plane stabilization ...

Cholinergic Mechanisms in Spinal Locomotion - Potential Target for Rehabilitation Approaches
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014 Previous experiments implicate cholinergic brainstem and spinal systems in the control of locomotion. Our results demonstrate that the endogenous cholinergic propriospinal system, acting via M2 and M3 muscarinic receptors, is capable of consistently ...
