The evolution of muscle spindles

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle spindles are stretch‐sensitive mechanoreceptors found in the skeletal muscles of most four‐limbed vertebrates. They are unique amongst sensory receptors in the ability to regulate their sensitivity by contraction of the intrafusal muscle fibres on which the sensory endings lie.

Deep‐learning models of the ascending proprioceptive pathway are subject to illusions

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Proprioception is essential for perception and action. Like any other sense, proprioception is also subject to illusions. In this study, we model classic proprioceptive illusions in which tendon vibrations lead to biases in estimating the state of the body.

Optogenetic methods to stimulate gamma motor neuron axons ex vivo

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract It is challenging to stimulate gamma motor neurons, which are important regulators of muscle spindle afferent function, without also recruiting alpha motor neurons. Here, we test the feasibility of stimulating gamma motor neuron axons using optogenetics in two transgenic mouse lines. We used an ex vivo muscle–nerve preparation in adult mice to

Ageing changes the proprioceptive contribution to balance control under different types of mastoid vibration: A cross‐sectional study

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing‐related sensory deteriorations are significantly associated with poor balance control among older individuals, resulting in a higher risk of falling in a dark environment. In particular, the proprioceptive system plays a critical role in maintaining balance.

Improving coordination, proprioception, balance and motor proficiency in Down syndrome with developmental games

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aimed to investigate the impact of corrective‐developmental games on proprioception, coordination, balance and motor proficiency in individuals with Down syndrome. The current quasi‐experimental study with pre‐test and post‐test design explores the impact of corrective‐developmental games (fine‐gross motor skill games and univariate‐
