The role of the supporting lower limb function in the premotor changes in the H-reflex of m. soleus
In studies on healthy humans we examined changes in the H reflex amplitude and the intensity of background EMG of the soleus muscle within the premotor period of voluntary extension of the contralateral ankle joint.

Fictive Scratching Patterns in Brain Cortex-Ablated, Midcollicular Decerebrate, and Spinal Cats
Background: The spinal cord’s central pattern generators (CPGs) have been explained by the symmetrical half-center hypothesis, the bursts generator, computational models, and more recently by connectome circuits.

The Food-Crushing Reflex and Its Inhibition
Anterior tooth (ANT) contacts induce a short-latency reflex inhibition of the human jaw-closing muscles. The jaw is a rigid class 1 lever for pinpoint targeting muscle force into a single bite point, the pivoting food particle.

Motoneurons, the final common path of the Central Nervous System (CNS), are under a complex control of its excitability in order to precisely translate the interneuronal pattern of activity into skeletal muscle contraction and relaxation. To fulfill this

Expression of the immunoglobulin superfamily cell adhesion molecules in the developing spinal cord and dorsal root ganglion. [PDF]
Cell adhesion molecules belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF) control synaptic specificity through hetero- or homophilic interactions in different regions of the nervous system.

MASSETERIC MONOSYNAPTIC REFLEX IN CHRONIC CAT
1) In the unanesthetized chronic cat the monosynaptic reflex responses were recorded from the masseter nerve or from the masseter and temporal muscles, after giving shocks to the trigeminal mesencephalic tract.2) In the para-sleep phase the monosynaptic reflex response was smaller than in the preceding ortho-sleep phase.

The projection pattern of low‐threshold afferents from the extensor carpi radialis (ECR) to motoneurons supplying intrinsic hand muscles was investigated using the post‐stimulus time‐histogram (PSTH) and electromyogram‐averaging (EMG‐A) methods ...

H-reflex excitability in children with spastic cerebral palsy
Background: Cerebral palsy is a disorder of movement and posture resulting from permanent, nonprogressive defect or lesion of the immature brain. Spastic cerebral palsy is a common clinical type which is difficult to diagnose clinically in the early ...
