The aim of this study was to identify the effect of chemical activation of muscle metabosensitive afferent fibers from groups III and IV on Hoffmann (H-) reflex modulation in the vastus medialis muscle. The experiment was conducted in rats and was divided into two experiments. The first experiment c

The possibility was investigated that stimulation of high-threshold afferents in the common peroneal nerve (CPN) evokes excitation of quadriceps (Q) motoneurones in humans. Effects of conditioning stimuli at motor threshold (1 x MT) and at higher intensities were compared on both the Q H-reflex and
Muscle spindle stretch responses (cat gastrocnemius muscles) were studied when both steady stretch and small near-threshold random stretch determined the Ia impulse sequence. Statistical properties of the inter-impulse-intervals gave some insight into the Ia encoder mechanism. Superimposed random st
