Intrinsic spinal cord circuits compare sensory inputs and efference copies to correct for perturbations to ongoing movement

Mustafa Görkem Özyurt, Sarah Chiasson, Alex M. Laliberté, Filipe Nascimento, E. STANLEY I. KHAN, William Paganini Mayer, Gardave Singh Bhumbra, Turgay Akay, Tuan Vu Bui, Marco Beato, Robert M. Brownstone, Rémi Ronzano

This study identifies dI3 neurons in the spinal cord that compare efference copies and sensory feedback to enable rapid movement corrections.

Orphan nuclear receptors Err2 and 3 promote a feature-specific terminal differentiationprogram underlying gamma motor neuron function and proprioceptive movement control

Mudassar N. Khan, Pitchaiah Cherukuri, Francesco Negro, Ashish Rajput, Piotr Fabrowski, Vikas Bansal, Camille Lancelin, Tsung-I Lee, Yehan Bian, William Paganini Mayer, Turgay Akay, Daniel Müller, Stefan Bonn, Dario Farina, Till Marquardt

The paper identifies Err2 and Err3 as transcription factors promoting functional properties in gamma motor neurons essential for proprioceptive movement control.

Modular organization of the murine locomotor pattern in presence and absence of sensory feedback from muscle spindles

Alessandro Santuz, Turgay Akay, William Paganini Mayer, Tyler L. Wells, Arno Schroll, Adamantios Arampatzis

The paper examines how muscle spindle feedback affects the modular organization of locomotion in mice, showing that proprioceptive input is crucial for maintaining motor function during walking and swimming.
