Activity of spinal interneurons and their effects on forearm muscles during voluntary wrist movements in the monkey.

摘要

We studied the activity of 577 neurons in the C6-T1 spinal cord of three awake macaque monkeys while they generated visually guided, isometric flexion/extension torques about the wrist. Spike-triggered averaging of electromyographic activity (EMG) identified the units' correlational linkages with
