Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in sensory, motor, and autonomic dysfunction. Obesity,
cardiovascular disease, and metabolic disease are highly prevalent after SCI. Although …

The review surveys various aspects of the plasticity of nerve fibers, in particular the
prolonged increase in their excitability evoked by polarization, focusing on a long-lasting …

Movement and posture depend on sensory feedback that is regulated by specialized
GABAergic neurons (GAD2+) that form axo-axonic contacts onto myelinated proprioceptive …

When a muscle is stretched, sensory feedback not only causes reflexes but also leads to a
depolarization of sensory afferents throughout the spinal cord (primary afferent …

Primary sensory neurons are a heterogeneous population of cells able to respond to both
innocuous and noxious stimuli. Like most neurons they are highly compartmentalised …

Modulation of input from primary afferent fibres has long been examined at the level of the
first relays of these fibres. However, recent studies reveal that input to the spinal cord may …

In presymptomatic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), spinal motoneurons (MNs) have
reduced firing patterns and synaptic excitation levels. Preliminary data indicated that in the …

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease of largely unknown
pathophysiology, characterized by the progressive loss of motoneurons (MNs). We review …

Few attempts have so far been made to define the mechanisms underlying the hour‐long
effects of trans‐spinal stimulation combined with epidural polarization. In the present study …
