Post-activation potentiation and the kindling phenomenon
Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1975Potentials evoked in the hippocampus and preoptic region of rats by single biphasic pulses applied to the amygdala were compared during recruiting, after post-tetanic potentiation (PTP) and after amygdaloid kindling. The same components were enhanced temporarily by recruiting and PTP as were enhanced permanently by kindling.

Sports Medicine, 2005
The response of muscle to volitional or electrically induced stimuli is affected by its contractile history. Fatigue is the most obvious effect of contractile history reflected by the inability of a muscle to generate an expected level of force. However, fatigue can coexist with post-activation potentiation (PAP), which serves to improve muscular ...

Mechanomyographic determination of post-activation potentiation in myopathies
Clinical Neurophysiology, 2006There is a need to provide an index of muscle contractility in evaluating myopathies especially in the clinical setting. This study was conducted to investigate if the mechanomyogram post-activation potentiation (MMG-PAP) can be used as an index of muscle contractile force potentiation (force-PAP), if it differs between normal and myopathic muscles ...

The effect of post-activation potentiation in the sprint in freestyle
International Seven Journal of Multidisciplinary, 2023Post-Activation Potentialization (PPA) is defined as an acute improvement in muscle function after stimulation. Different variables of PPA protocols can affect performance, such as the duration, the type of stimulus, the level of training of the requirements and the time interval between the conditioning activity and the specific activity.

Effect of intensity and duration of conditioning protocol on post-activation potentiation and changes in H-reflex [PDF]
European Journal of Sport Science, 2011 [Abstract]: The force enhancement of muscle twitch contraction after a maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) has been defined as post-activation potentiation. However, the effects of post-activation potentiation on ballistic movements have not been studied

The postnatal development of post-activation potentiation in the rat neocortex
Developmental Brain Research, 1983The postnatal development of short-term potentiation (STP) and long-term potentiation (LTP) of the transcallosal response (TCR) was examined in anesthetized rats, aged 7 days (PN7) to adult (greater than or equal to PN180). Stimulation of callosal fibers produced a biphasic, positive-negative TCR recorded at the surface of the anterior neocortex in all

Post-activation potentiation and potentiated motor unit firing patterns in boys and men
European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2023Post-activation potentiation (PAP) describes the enhancement of twitch torque following a conditioning contraction (CC) in skeletal muscle. In adults, PAP may be related to muscle fibre composition and is accompanied by a decrease in motor unit (MU) firing rates (MUFRs).

Post‐activation potentiation (PAP) in endurance sports: A review
European Journal of Sport Science, 2018AbstractWhile there is strong support of the usefulness of post‐activation potentiation (PAP) phenomenon in power demanding sports, the role that PAP could play in endurance sports has received less attention. The aim of this review is to present evidence for a better understanding of PAP in endurance athletes; and to discuss the physiological basis ...

Post-activation potentiation in the neocortex: I. Acute preparations
Brain Research, 1994Long-term potentiation is widely studied as a memory model, and has been demonstrated in a number of subcortical sites in both acute and chronic preparations. In the neocortex, however, most of the demonstrations of LTP have been in neocortical slice or acute preparations, and even these have often required a drug-induced attenuation of inhibition ...

Optimization of post-activation potentiation in girls and women
European Journal of Applied PhysiologyMaximal conditioning contractions (CCs) can lead to the enhancement of evoked-twitch characteristics in human skeletal muscle. This phenomenon is termed post-activation potentiation (PAP). In the knee extensors, PAP is greater in men compared with boys. In adults, the optimal CC duration for PAP is ~ 10 s.
