The lack of systematic investigations on sex-related differences in motor unit behaviour
poses a challenge in understanding and optimizing health and performance in males and …

While neural changes are thought to be responsible for early increases in strength following
resistance training (RT), the exact changes in motor unit (MU) firing properties remain …

Ageing is a natural process causing alterations in the neuromuscular system, which
contributes to reduced quality of life. Motor unit (MU) contributes to weakness, but the …

Noninvasive recordings of motor unit (MU) spike trains help us understand how the nervous
system controls movement and how it adapts to various physiological conditions. The …

Persistent inward currents (PICs) are crucial for initiation, acceleration, and maintenance of
motoneuron firing. As PICs are highly sensitive to synaptic inhibition and facilitated by …

Objective. All motor commands flow through motoneurons, which entrain control of their
innervated muscle fibers, forming a motor unit (MU). Owing to the high fidelity of action …

Persistent inward calcium and sodium currents (IP) activated during motoneuron recruitment
help synaptic inputs maintain self-sustained firing until derecruitment. Here, we estimate the …

Key points The neural strategies behind the control of force during muscle pain are not well
understood as previous research has been limited in assessing pain responses only during …

Modulation of movement velocity is necessary during daily life tasks, work, and sports
activities. However, assessing motor unit behavior during muscle shortening and …

Objective. Successive improvements in high density surface electromyography and
decomposition techniques have facilitated an increasing yield in decomposed motor unit …
