Electrical Vestibular Stimuli Evoke Robust Muscle Activity in Deep and Superficial Neck Muscles in Humans [PDF]
Frontiers in Neurology, 2018 Neck muscle activity evoked by vestibular stimuli is a clinical measure for evaluating the function of the vestibular apparatus. Cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMP) are most commonly measured in the sternocleidomastoid muscle (and more

The CXCR4/SDF-1 Axis in the Development of Facial Expression and Non-somitic Neck Muscles [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Trunk and head muscles originate from distinct embryonic regions: while the trunk muscles derive from the paraxial mesoderm that becomes segmented into somites, the majority of head muscles develops from the unsegmented cranial paraxial mesoderm ...

Symmetry of the Neck Muscles’ Activity in the Electromyography Signal during Basic Motion Patterns [PDF]
Sensors, 2023 The activity of muscles during motion in one direction should be symmetrical when compared to the activity of the contralateral muscles during motion in the opposite direction, while symmetrical movements should result in symmetrical muscle activation ...

Unique morphogenetic signatures define mammalian neck muscles and associated connective tissues [PDF]
eLife, 2018 In vertebrates, head and trunk muscles develop from different mesodermal populations and are regulated by distinct genetic networks. Neck muscles at the head-trunk interface remain poorly defined due to their complex morphogenesis and dual mesodermal ...
