Abstract

Investigated temporal parameters concerning retention of a stimulation-induced hindlimb flexion. After spinal transection, 60 male Long-Evans rats received 10, 20, 30, 40, 45, or 50 min of hindlimb stimulation. Consistent persistence of flexion following stimulus cessation was observed in Ss that were stimulated for at least 30 min. When the results are compared with previous data, the spinalized S shows a 10-min reduction in the critical time interval needed to consistently obtain poststimulation persistence of flexion.
