Recovery of motor behavior following damage to the adult mammalian CNS could occur in a
number of different ways. One possibility is that the initially lost or impaired physiological …

A number of mechanisms have been proposed as explanations for the recovery of motor
function which follows CNS lesions in adult mammals (for reviews see Goldberger 1974; …

To distinguish the effects of a “purely postural” abnormality of the trunk upon phasic limb
movements in cats, dorsal roots T5 through T13 were cut extradurally on one side. A …

Previous studies showed that after complete hindlimb deafferentation in cats, the ipsilateral
descending pathways mediated recovery of overground, goal-directed locomotion and …

After partial (spared-root) or complete hindlimb deafferentation, locomotion and accurate
limb placement during locomotion recover considerably. In the present study movement was …

neurectomy of ankle flexors in intact and spinal cats: a model for the study of locomotor …

After hindlimb deafferentation, recovery of locomotor patterns may be distinguished from
recovery of accurate movements. Cats were timed while crossing wide runways requiring …

Abstract in view of findings showing greater recovery of motor function after lesions in
newborn animals, this chapter is intended to examine the lesion-induced remodeling of …

nervous system (CNS) in the regulation of different aspects of locomotion in the cat comes …

(Accepted August 9th, 1979) it is known that behavioral adaptation after tendon transfer 5, t1,
