Tonically Active α5GABAA Receptors Reduce Motoneuron Excitability and Decrease the Monosynaptic Reflex
Motoneurons, the final common path of the Central Nervous System (CNS), are under a complex control of its excitability in order to precisely translate the interneuronal pattern of activity into skeletal muscle contraction and relaxation. To fulfill this relevant function, motoneurons are provided with a vast repertoire of receptors and channels, including the extrasynaptic GABAA receptors whic...
متن کاملTonically Active α2 Subunit-Containing Glycine Receptors Regulate the Excitability of Striatal Medium Spiny Neurons
Medium spiny neurons (MSNs) of the dorsal striatum represent the first relay of cortico-striato-thalamic loop, responsible for the initiation of voluntary movements and motor learning. GABAergic transmission exerts the main inhibitory control of MSNs. However, MSNs also express chloride-permeable glycine receptors (GlyRs) although their subunit composition and functional significance in the str...
متن کاملReflex Depression in Rhythmically Active Monosynaptic Reflex Pathways
A study has been made of the depression that occurs when a monosynaptic reflex pathway is subjected to repetitive stimulation. Reflex depression has a dual origin. High frequency or early depression is postsynaptic in origin and results from subnormality in the motoneurons. Low frequency, late, or enduring depression is presynaptic in origin. The conditioning volley-test volley technique and th...
متن کاملeffects of direct current on motoneuron reflex excitability (assessed by h-reflex amplitude) in healthy subjects
the purpose of the this study was to investigate the effect of direct current on montoneuron reflex exitability. thirty six subjects (18 males, 18 females) 19.36 years of age ( x= 24.06, sd= 3.63) participated in this study. the reflex excitability of soleus motoneruons was assessed by measuring the amount of change in the peak to peak ampitude of the h-reflex before and after direct current wa...
متن کاملThe contingent negative variation and the excitability of the spinal monosynaptic reflex.
A method is described which permits simultaneous measurement of changes in slow electroencephalographic potentials (Contingent Negative Variation-CNV) and the excitability of the spinal monosynaptic arc (H reflex) during the foreperiod of a simple reaction time experiment. Data from 11 normal subjects show that during the development of the CNV there is an augmentation of the amplitude of the H...
