摘要
Research has demonstrated that motor and sensory functions of the lower limbs can be modulated by upper-limb muscle contractions. However, whether sensorimotor integration of the lower limb can be modulated by upper-limb muscle contractions is still unknown. [AQ: NR Original articles do not require structured abstracts. Hence, abstract subsections have been deleted. Please check.]Human sensorimotor integration has been studied using short- or long-latency afferent inhibition (SAI or LAI, respectively), which refers to inhibition of motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) elicited via transcranial magnetic stimulation by preceding peripheral sensory stimulation. In the present study, we aimed to investigate whether upper-limb muscle contractions could modulate the sensorimotor integration of the lower limbs by examining SAI and LAI. Soleus muscle MEPs following electrical tibial nerve stimulation (TSTN) during rest or voluntary wrist flexion were recorded at inter-stimulus intervals (ISIs) of 30 (i.e. SAI), 100, and 200 ms (i.e. LAI). The soleus Hoffman reflex following TSTN was also measured to identify whether MEP modulation occurred at the cortical or the spinal level. Results showed that lower-limb SAI, but not LAI, was disinhibited during voluntary wrist flexion. Furthermore, the soleus Hoffman reflex following TSTN during voluntary wrist flexion was unchanged when compared with that during the resting state at any ISI. Our findings suggest that upper-limb muscle contractions modulate sensorimotor integration of the lower limbs and that disinhibition of lower-limb SAI during upper-limb muscle contractions is cortically based.
