Unveiling the neuromechanical mechanisms underlying the synergistic interactions in human sensorimotor system
(Springer Nature, 2021-01-08)Motor synergies are neural organizations of a set of redundant motor effectors that interact with one another to compensate for each other’s error and ensure the stabilization of a performance variable. Recent studies have ... -
The relationship between ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) genotype and motor unit physiology: preliminary studies
(Springer Nature, 2005-09-23)Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) is important for neuronal and muscle development, and genetic variation in the CNTF gene has been associated with muscle strength. The effect of CNTF on nerve development suggests that ... -
Does visual feedback during walking result in similar improvements in trunk control for young and older healthy adults?
(Springer Nature, 2013-11-26)Most current applications of visual feedback to improve postural control are limited to a fixed base of support and produce mixed results regarding improved postural control and transfer to functional tasks. Currently there ... -
Mitochondrial oxygen consumption deficits in skeletal muscle isolated from an Alzheimer’s disease-relevant murine model
(Springer Nature, 2014-02-13)Age is considered a primary risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer’s disease (AD). It is also now well understood that mitochondrial function declines with age. Mitochondrial deficits have been ... -
The SH3 and cysteine-rich domain 3 (Stac3) gene is important to growth, fiber composition, and calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum in postnatal skeletal muscle
(Springer Nature, 2016-04-11)The SH3 and cysteine-rich domain 3 (Stac3) gene is specifically expressed in the skeletal muscle. Stac3 knockout mice die perinatally. In this study, we determined the potential role of Stac3 in postnatal skeletal muscle ...
