pubmed:abstractText |
An analysis is made of linear and non-linear summation of the motor unit (MU) tension and motoneuron (MN) membrane potential (PSP) trajectories evoked by stimulation of MUs as previously reported. In most cases, summation of both averaged responses was linear. Seldom, PSPs summed non-linearly, then usually coinciding with non-linear summation of the responsible MU twitches. The results suggest that the afferent pathways mediating the mechanical events in muscle to MNs behave rather linearly, at least in the small-signal range of interest here.
