Spinal Cord Excitability and Sprint Performance Are Enhanced by Sensory Stimulation During Cycling
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017 Spinal cord excitability, as assessed by modulation of Hoffmann (H-) reflexes, is reduced with fatiguing isometric contractions. Furthermore, spinal cord excitability is reduced during non-fatiguing arm and leg cycling.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Stromal vascular fraction (SVF) may enhance nerve repair, especially when delivered in a self‐assembling peptide hydrogel (SAPH). In vitro, softer SAPH increased neuronal explant outgrowth and supported greater SVF viability and proliferation. In a rat sciatic defect, SVF in an optimized SAPH produced motor and sensory recovery equivalent to autograft ...

Effects of guanidine on synaptic transmission in the spinal cord of the frog [PDF]
, 1977 The effects of guanidine on motoneurons of the isolated frog spinal cord were studied by adding the drug to the solution bathing the cord during intracellular recording. Guanidine (5·10–4 M) did not alter the membrane potential of motoneurons.

Thermal Processing Creates Water‐Stable PEDOT:PSS Films for Bioelectronics
Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 13, April 2, 2025.Instead of using chemical cross–linkers, it is shown that PEDOT:PSS thin films for bioelectronics become water‐stable after a simple heat treatment. The heat treatment is compatible with a range of rigid and elastomeric substrates and films are stable in vivo for >20 days.

Activation of Long Descending Propriospinal Neurons in Cat Spinal Cord [PDF]
, 1980 Isolated mammalian spinal cord has been shown capable of generating locomotor activity. Propriospinal systems assumed to coordinate fore- and hindlimb activity are poorly understood.

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 ...
