Muscular sense is attenuated when humans move.
1. Muscle receptors play an important role in our conscious perception of movement, but there are no published accounts of our ability to detect their signals during different motor tasks. The present experiments introduce a method to test muscular sense when humans move. 2. Muscle receptors were excited by an electrically induced twitch of the right extensor carpi ulnaris muscle. The muscle wa...
متن کاملMaking sense of the limb-girdle muscular dystrophies.
The clinical heterogeneity which has long been recognized in the limb-girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMD) has been shown to relate to the involvement of a large number of different genes. At least eight forms of autosomal recessive LGMD and three forms of autosomal dominant disease are now recognized and can be defined by the primary gene or protein involved, or by a genetic localization. These ...
متن کامل"The sixth sense": towards a history of muscular sensation.
This paper outlines the history of knowledge about the muscular sense and provides a bibliographic resource for further research. A range of different topics, questions and approaches have interrelated throughout this history, and the discussion clarifies this rather than presenting detailed research in any one area. Part I relates the origin of belief in a muscular sense to empiricist accounts...
متن کاملAlteration of the position sense at the ankle induced by muscular fatigue in humans.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate how an isometric exhaustion test affects the position sense at the ankle using an active matching task. METHODS Eight male subjects with a mean age 24.6 yr participated in the study. Subjects' ability to match the right ankle with the position of the left reference ankle position-determined using signed and absolute errors and variability-w...
متن کاملAntisense-induced multiexon skipping for Duchenne muscular dystrophy makes more sense.
Dystrophin deficiency, which leads to severe and progressive muscle degeneration in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), is caused by frameshifting mutations in the dystrophin gene. A relatively new therapeutic strategy is based on antisense oligonucleotides (AONs) that induce the specific skipping of a single exon, such that the reading frame is restored. This allows the synthesis ...
