The single-joint voluntary plantar flexion in the ankle joint of humans was tested with an external load perturbation consisting of two opposite sinus half-waves. Pronounced manifestations of hysteresis were found in the dependence of the joint angle on the external load torque. In particular, the hysteresis displayed itself as an increase in joint stiffness following changes in the direction of movement. It led to the ambiguity of the equilibrium values of the joint angle. With goal-directed voluntary single-joint flexion and extension movements under isotonic conditions due to the corresponding changes in activation of flexor muscles only (without the activation of extensors), the hysteresis manifested itself as the uncertainty of the joint-angle dependence on the efferent activity coming to flexors during movement phases with varying prehistory. The importance of sensory information for the mechanism compensating hysteresis effects was demonstrated. The possible ways of regulation of efferent activity of the motoneuronal pools generating central motor commands in the presence of hysteresis of muscle contraction are discussed.Neirofiziologiya/Neurophysiology, Vol. 26, No. 2, pp. 83–90, March–April, 1994. 相似文献

We recorded electromyographic (EMG) reactions from the flexors of the elbow joint and evoked potentials (EP) from the somatic cortex (fields 3, 4, and 6) of unanesthetized cats. These reactions were elicited by perturbation of an external extensor loading applied to the arm and evoking passive extension of the elbow joint. Perturbation of the loading was performed in two modes: (i) with different fixed force moments within a 0.04–0.2 N·m range, but with a constant rate of change in this moment (3.2 N·m·sec–1), and (ii) with a constant force moment magnitude (0.2 N·m), but with different rates of change in this moment (from 0.1 to 6.4 N·m·sec–1). When the elbow joint was passively extended, an EMG response was generated in the m. biceps brachii. The amplitude of this response correlated with the amplitude of perturbation of the external loading, and the time course of the response was rather close to that of the evoked passive moment. It was possible to differentiate several (up to seven) successive components in EP recorded from the three above-mentioned cortical fields; among them, the component N(50–60) was the most stable and clearly manifested. Its amplitude did not depend on the level of external loading and decreased with a decrease in the rate of loading perturbation. The time course of the N(50–60) changed insignificantly with variation of temporal parameters of the stimulus and of the evoked movement. We conclude that the spinal level and the cortical level responsible for formation of the stretch reflex differ significantly from each other in their functional roles. Reactions of the spinal level (which could be characterized by changes in EMG) are to a greater extent related to a change in the position of the limb link, while reactions of the cortical level (EP) are determined by the arrival of information about changes in the forces applied to the joint. Neurons of the somatic cortex, which are excited in the course of the stretch reflex, cannot be considered the main source responsible for generation of the M2 component of the myographic response. It is supposed that the cortical level predetermines the formation of non-reflex motor commands related to motor reflexes closed in the somatic brain cortex. 相似文献

Responses of 93 neurons to isolated presentation of a single click and a series of 10 clicks with following frequency of 1000 Hz and responses of 66 neurons after the click had become a positive conditioned stimulus, and a series of 10 clicks had become a differential, negative stimulus, were investigated in chronic experiments on cats. Formation and realization of differential inhibition of an instrumental food reflex was shown not to lead to strengthening of inhibition in the auditory cortex, and the process of differential inhibition itself within the primary auditory cortex is not essentially an inhibitory process. Identical changes were found in responses of auditory cortical neurons to both positive and negative conditioned stimuli after training, evidence that neurons of the primary auditory cortex play a similar role in realization of the instrumental reflex and in its differential inhibition. It is suggested that the presence of groups of neurons responding by excitation or inhibition only to presentation of a stimulus with definite informative value is of great importance for differentiation.A.

Monopolar intracortical stimulation of the auditory cortex was carried out in cats immobilized with D-tubocurarine. A macroelectrode (tip diameter 100 µ) or a microelectrode (tip diameter 10–15 µ) was used for stimulation. In both cases, besides excitatory responses, primary IPSPs with latent periods of 0.4–1.2 and 1.4–6.0 msec were recorded in cortical neurons close to the point of stimulation. The first group of IPSPs are considered to be generated in response to direct stimulation of bodies or axons of inhibitory cortical neurons, i.e., monosynaptically. The amplitude of these IPSPs varied in different neurons from 3 to 15 mV, and their duration from 4 to 150 msec. Additional later inhibitory responses were superposed on many of them. Of the IPSPs generated in auditory cortical neurons in response to stimulation of geniculocortical fibers 1.5% had a latency of 0.8–1.3 msec. They also are assumed to be monosynaptic. It is concluded that the duration of synaptic delay of IPSPs in cortical neurons and spinal motoneurons is the same, namely 0.3–0.4 msec. Axons of auditory cortical inhibitory neurons may be 1.5 mm long. The velocity of impulse conduction along these axons is 1.6–2.8 m/sec. The genesis of some special features of IPSPs of cortical neurons is discussed.A. A. Bogomolets Institute of Physiology, Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR, Kiev.

Responses of 246 auditory cortical neurons to paired and repetitive stimulation of geniculo-cortical fibers were studied in experiments on cats immobilized with tubocurarine. The refractory period (RP) varied from 1 to 200 msec in different neurons. For neurons excited antidromically it varied from 1 to 3 msec. Among neurons excited monosynaptically there were some with a short (1.3–6 msec), medium, (8–16 msec) or long (30–100 msec) refractory period. Most neurons excited polysynaptically had a RP of mean length. RPs 30–200 msec in length were due to inhibition arising in the neuron after conditioning stimulation. In some neurons, after a short (1.5–2.0 msec) initial period of refractoriness there was a temporary (for 2–3 msec) recovery of responsiveness, followed by another period of ineffectiveness of the testing stimulus lasting 30–100 msec. Barbiturates selectively inhibited long-latency unit responses in the auditory cortex and during their action the number of responding neurons with a mean RP decreased sharply. The results demonstrate functional heterogeneity of auditory cortical neurons responding to an incoming volley of afferent impulses.A. A.

Unit activity in the midbrain periaqueductal gray matter (PGM) during an instrumental placing reflex, its extinction, differentiation, and conditioned inhibition, was studied in chronic experiments on cats. Spike responses 1–2 sec in duration in 69 (36.7%) of 182 neurons preceded by 400–800 msec the beginning of conditioned-reflex and voluntary intertrial movements. These advanced responses appeared 200 msec before the corresponding advance responses of motor cortical neurons. Fifty-eight neurons (30.9%) responded directly to acoustic stimulation with a latent period of 10–50 msec for 2–6 sec, 19 neurons (10.1%) generated double responses, linked with both the acoustic stimulus and subsequent conditioned-reflex movement, and 42 neurons (22.3%) did not respond to acoustic stimulation, although individual neurons of this group changed the level of their spontaneous activity in response to repeated conditioned stimulation, and this change was maintained for some tens of minutes. Extinction, differentiation, and conditioned inhibition all abolished conditioned-reflex movements, but each type of internal inhibition was accompanied by its own characteristic changes in the firing pattern of PGM neurons. Functional independence of neurons of the first and second groups was demonstrated during extinction and recovery of the conditioned-reflex. The results indicate the important role of PGM not only in the mechanism of the conditioned reflex, but also in the development of its internal inhibition.A. A.

Healthy subjects underwent analysis for positioning accuracy. The flexion-extension movements in the ankle and elbow joints performed without visual control were studied. The movements were produced by flexor muscles against small background loading (extensors were inactive). The subject was asked to memorize a certain target value of the joint angle reached under visual guidance in the phase of flexor contraction. After the flexion- (additional activation of the flexors) or extension-directed movement (relaxation of these muscles) the subject was asked to restore the target level from memory, without visual guidance. In the first case, when the target level was finally approached due to the flexor relaxation, a systematic overshoot of the target joint angle was observed. In the second case, when the target level was finally approached due to the additional activation of the flexors after their temporal relaxation, the positioning was much more accurate.Neirofiziologiya/Neurophysiology, Vol. 26, No. 2, pp. 91–98, March–April, 1994. 相似文献

The effect of pentobarbital, chloralose, and urethane on IPSPs arising in auditory cortical neurons in response to electrical stimulation of geniculocortical fibers was studied in experiments on cats immobilized with D-tubocurarine. Pentobarbital (60–80 mg/kg body weight, intraperitoneally) sharply reduced the number of neurons responding by spikes to geniculocortical stimulation. Only short-latency responses remained. The number of neurons responding with IPSPs was unchanged. Pentobarbital increased the duration of the IPSPs by 1.5–2 times and shortened their latent periods. Under the influence of chloralose (60 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) the number of responses of EPSP—spike—IPSP type was increased and the duration of the IPSPs also was increased by 3–4 times. The latent period of the primary IPSPs was shortened. Unlike pentobarbital and chloralose, urethane (1000 mg/kg, intravenously) reduced the duration of the IPSPs to 30 msec. About 2% of IPSPs recorded before anesthesia had a latent period of 1.0–1.5 msec. Under the influence of anesthesia the relative number of these IPSPs increased to 5.7%. It it postulated that they are monosynaptic. The mechanism of action of general anesthetics on the cortical inhibitory system is discussed. 相似文献

Spikes were recorded extracellularly and IPSPs intracellularly from auditory cortical neurons of cats immobilized with D-tubocurarine in response to stimulation of geniculo-cortical fibers. Fibers whose stimulation induces IPSPs in auditory cortical neurons mainly have low thresholds. When two stimuli, each of which separately evoked an IPSP of maximal amplitude, were applied to them the shortest interval at which the second stimulus evoked an effect was 2.5–3 msec. This effect consisted of an increase in the duration of the integral IPSP, the amplitude of which either remained unchanged or increased under these circumstances by only 5–10%. The interval at which a separate IPSP appeared in response to the second stimulus depended on the duration of the ascending phase of the IPSP and varied from 4 to 22 msec for different neurons. The amplitude of the second IPSP in this case depended on the interval between stimuli. Under moderately deep pentobarbital anesthesia the number of neurons responding to stimulation of the geniculo-cortical fibers by spikes fell sharply but the number of neurons responding by primary IPSPs remained almost unchanged. Under very deep pentobarbital anesthesia, when spike responses of the cortical neurons completely disappeared, the IPSPs also were completely suppressed. It is concluded that inhibitory neurons of the auditory cortex are excited by thick low-threshold fibers, they have a short refractory period, and they are resistant to the narcotic action of pentobarbital. 相似文献

Relations between the kinematic parameters of slow (non-ballistic) targeted extension movements in the elbow joint of humans and characteristics of the movement-related EMG activity in the two heads of the m. triceps brachii were analyzed. Test movements were performed under conditions of application of non-inertional external loadings directed toward flexion. It was shown that the movement-related EMG activity of the elbow extensors, similarly to what was observed in the flexors at flexion movements with the same parameters, demonstrates a complex structure and includes dynamic and stationary phases. In the former phase, in turn, initial and main components can be differentiated. The rising edge and decay of the main component of the dynamic extensor EMG phase could be approximated by exponential functions; this component was never split into a few subcomponents. Dependences between the amplitudes of m. triceps brachii EMG phases and the amplitude of the movement (or external loading) were, as a rule, nonlinear but monotonic. An increase in the test movement velocity led to an increase in the rate of rise of the rising edge of the dynamic EMG phase, while an increment in the amplitude was less significant. Under the used test conditions, the activity of the elbow extensors was usually accompanied by some coactivation of the antagonists (m. biceps brachii). It is concluded that motor commands coming to the elbow extensors at performance of the extension test movements differ from motor commands to the flexors at analogous flexion test movements by a simpler structure and more tonic pattern. Biomechanical specificities of fixation of the mentioned muscle groups to the arm bones (stability of the moment for application of the extensor force under conditions of changing the joint angle vs variable moment of the flexor force) are considered one of the main reasons for such specificity of the patterns of the extensor and flexor motor commands. 相似文献
