Circular continuum of alpha motoneuron types

2025-08-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Alpha-motoneurons (α-MNs) are traditionally classified into slow (S), fast fatigue-resistant (FR), and fast-fatigable (FF), which exist along a continuum of properties between slow and fast, enabling the generation of graded force and seamless movement. Using combinations of markers, we developed novel immunohistochemistry protocols that enabled co-labeling of six major and transitional α-MN typ...
