Inhibition linearizes firing rate responses in human motor units: implications for the role of persistent inward currents
AbstractDuring graded isometric contractions, motor unit (MU) firing rates increase steeply upon recruitment but then level off at modest rates even though muscle force continues to increase. The mechanisms underlying such firing behaviour are not known although activation of persistent inward currents...
