Spinal facilitation of descending motor input
Giuliano Taccola, Roger W. P. Kissane, Stanislav Culaclii…·Victor Reggie Edgerton
The paper demonstrates that dynamic spinal stimulation enhances corticospinal motor responses by increasing spinal interneuron excitability, even after injury.

C-bouton components on rat extensor digitorum longus motoneurons are resistant to chronic functional overload
Roger W. P. Kissane, Arash Ghaffari‐Rafi, Peter George Tickle…·Calvin Chad Smith
This study examines adaptations in rat motoneurons and C-boutons under chronic functional overload, finding that motoneuron size decreases while C-boutons remain largely unchanged.

A Neural Circuit Model of Proprioceptive Feedback from Muscles Recruited during an Isometric Knee Extension
Gareth York, Hugh Osborne, Piyanee Sriya…·Samit Chakrabarty
The paper develops a computational spinal motor circuit model to study proprioceptive feedback during isometric knee extension, showing that muscle synergy patterns arise from spinal circuitry and proprioceptive input.

Caudal-rostral progression of alpha motoneurone degeneration in the SOD1G93A mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Alastair J. Kirby, Thomas Palmer, Richard J. Mead…·Samit Chakrabarty
The paper quantifies the caudal-rostral progression of alpha motoneurone degeneration in SOD1G93A mice, showing greater susceptibility in lumbar spinal cord regions.
