| Abstract |
The extent of spinal interneuron (IN) contribution to dexterous hand movements is unclear. Here, we studied the response patterns and force relationships of spinal premotor INs (PreM-INs) in three awake, behaving monkeys performing a precision grip task. We recorded activity from the cervical spinal cord (C5-T1) simultaneously with electromyographic (EMG) activity from hand and arm muscles during the task. Spike-triggered averaging of EMGs showed that 25 PreM-INs had postspike effects on EMG activity. Most PreM-INs (23/25) displayed movement-related firing rate modulations: 11 had phasic followed by tonic facilitation (p+t+); 4 were pure phasic; 4 were pure tonic; and 4 were deactivated, while their target muscles consistently had p+t+ activity (65/66 muscles). PreM-IN phasic activity started earlier than target muscle activity (49 ± 81.4 ms, mean ± SD), and the peak amplitude was correlated with the peak amplitude of the rate of change of grip force (4/17, p < 0.05), suggesting that they contributed to force initiation. In contrast, PreM-IN tonic activity started at almost the same time as the target muscle activity and the mean firing rate was correlated with the mean grip force during the hold period (4/15, p < 0.05), suggesting that they contributed to force maintenance. These results indicated that the neural pathway mediated by the spinal PreM-INs makes a significant contribution to the control of precision grip in primates. |
