✦ Synopsis

A previously proposed method for the interpretation of the signals in sensory nerve fibres is extended to incorporate/3 activation of muscle spindles. Simulations, based on previous experimental observations, of muscle spindles subjected to ramp and hold stretches are used as input to an "interpreter", where the simulated trains of action potentials are reconverted to a length change interpretation. The interpreted signals are compared with the original length change inputs to observe the effects of fl-stimulation and stochastic variability.

A method is proposed for the interpretation of the signals in sensory nerve fibres. It is applicable to systems in which the transfer function between the input to a sense organ and the action potential firing frequency is known. In the present case, the chelonian muscle spindle is considered since

The effects of electrical stimulation within the midbrain on fusimotor output to the jaw elevator muscles were studied in anaesthetized cats. Muscle spindle afferents recorded in the mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus were categorised as primary or secondary by their responses to succinylcholine durin

Mammalian muscle spindles show persistent after-effects following conditioning stretch or fusimotor stimulation. Most previous observations have been carried out on primary endings of spindles and using dynamic fusimotor stimulation. We report here observations on after-effects produced either by co
