Spinal metaplasticity in respiratory motor control
A hallmark feature of the neural system controlling breathing is its ability to exhibit plasticity. Less appreciated is the ability to exhibit metaplasticity, a change in the capacity to express plasticity (i.e., "plastic plasticity"). Recent advances in our understanding of cellular mechanisms giving rise to respiratory motor plasticity lay the groundwork for (ongoing) investigations of metapl...
متن کاملPlasticity in Respiratory Motor Control Invited Review: Neuroplasticity in respiratory motor control
Mitchell, Gordon S., and Stephen M. Johnson. Invited Review: Neuroplasticity in respiratory motor control. J Appl Physiol 94: 358–374, 2003; 10.1152/japplphysiol.00523.2002.—Although recent evidence demonstrates considerable neuroplasticity in the respiratory control system, a comprehensive conceptual framework is lacking. Our goals in this review are to define plasticity (and related neural pr...
متن کاملMotor control in the human spinal cord.
Features of the human spinal cord motor control are described using two spinal cord injury models: (i) the spinal cord completely separated from brain motor structures by accidental injury; (ii) the spinal cord receiving reduced and altered supraspinal input due to an incomplete lesion. Systematic studies using surface electrode polyelectromyography were carried out to assess skeletal muscle re...
متن کاملRespiratory chain deficiency in aged spinal motor neurons☆
Sarcopenia, muscle wasting, and strength decline with age, is an important cause of loss of mobility in the elderly individuals. The underlying mechanisms are uncertain but likely to involve defects of motor nerve, neuromuscular junction, and muscle. Loss of motor neurons with age and subsequent denervation of skeletal muscle has been recognized as one of the contributing factors. This study in...
متن کاملSerotonergic modulation of spinal motor control.
Serotonin (5-HT) is a monoamine that powerfully modulates spinal motor control by acting on intrasynaptic and extrasynaptic receptors. Here we review the diversity of 5-HT actions on locomotor and motoneuronal activities. Two approaches have been used on in vitro spinal cord preparations: either applying 5-HT in the extracellular medium or inducing its synaptic release. They produced strikingly...
