Neuromuscular Mechanisms Revisited Neuromuscular adaptations to strength training revisited
Strength and power performances are determined not only by the quantity and the quality of the involved muscle mass, but also by the extent to which the muscle mass may be activated by voluntary effort. Today, it is well known that strength and power training may cause changes within the nervous system that allow an individual to more fully activate prime movers in specific movements and to bet...
متن کاملMechanisms of plant–insect interaction
The study of plant–insect interactions continues to be an exciting and fast-moving field that builds upon the more extensive literature available in plant–microbe interactions and offers new and significant insights into both the unique molecular determinants of plant–insect interactions and the wider ecological context. This special issue of the Journal of Experimental Botany brings together a...
متن کاملNeural mechanisms of insect navigation.
We know more about the ethology of insect navigation than the neural substrates. Few studies have shown direct effects of brain manipulation on navigational behaviour; or measure brain responses that clearly relate to the animal's current location or spatial target, independently of specific sensory cues. This is partly due to the methodological problems of obtaining neural data in a naturally ...
متن کاملAssessing ultrastructure of crustacean and insect neuromuscular junctions.
Motor nerve terminals of arthropods provide excellent models for study of synaptic transmission, and their ultrastructure can be investigated in the same endings from which physiological recordings have been obtained. An experimental procedure for marking a recording site for subsequent ultrastructural analysis is described. The most commonly used procedure for ultrastructural analysis has been...
متن کاملThe Analysis of Neuromuscular Mechanisms in Chiton
1. The degree of curvature of the body and of the girdle of a Chiton is determined by the activity of antagonistic muscle groups. At a certain, early stage in the strychninization of a Chiton the reciprocal inhibition involved in the natural use of these muscle groups is reversed, such that extensor muscles, rather than, as normally, flexor muscles, contract as the result of stimulation. This c...
