• Balancing the excitability of M1 circuitry during movement observation without overt replication 

      Arias, Pablo; Robles-García, Verónica; Corral Bergantiños, Yoanna; Espinosa, Nelson; Mordillo-Mateos, Laura; Grieve, Kenneth; Oliviero, Antonio; Cudeiro, Javier (Frontiers, 2014-09-17)
      [Abstract] Although observation of a movement increases the excitability of the motor system of the observer, it does not induce a motor replica. What is the mechanism for replica suppression? We performed a series of ...
    • Central fatigue induced by short-lasting finger tapping and isometric tasks: a study of silent periods evoked at spinal and supraspinal levels 

      Arias, Pablo; Robles-García, Verónica; Corral Bergantiños, Yoanna; Madrid, Andy; Espinosa, Nelson; Valls-Solé, Josep; Grieve, Kenneth; Oliviero, Antonio; Cudeiro, Javier (Elsevier, 2015-08-01)
      [Abstract] The neural substrates of fatigue induced by muscular activity have been addressed in depth in relation to isometric tasks. For these activities, when fatigue develops, it has been noted that the duration of the ...
    • Characterization of microRNA expression profiles in normal and osteoarthritic human chondrocytes 

      Díaz-Prado, Silvia; Cicione, Claudia; Muiños-López, Emma; Hermida Gómez, Tamara; Oreiro, Natividad; Fernández-López, Carlos; Blanco García, Francisco J (BioMed Central, 2012-08-12)
      [Abstract] Background. Osteoarthritis (OA) is a multifactorial disease characterized by destruction of the articular cartilage due to environmental, mechanical and genetic components. The genetics of OA is complex and ...
    • Differential responses of spinal motoneurons to fatigue induced by short-lasting repetitive and isometric tasks 

      Madrid, Antonio; Valls-Solé, Josep; Oliviero, Antonio; Cudeiro, Javier; Arias, Pablo (Elsevier, 2016-10-24)
      [Abstract] Compared to isometric activities, the neural basis of fatigue induced by repetitive tasks has been scarcely studied. Recently, we showed that during short-lasting repetitive tasks at the maximal possible rate ...
    • Effects of Fatigue Induced by Repetitive Movements and Isometric Tasks on Reaction Time 

      Soto-León, Vanesa; Alonso-Bonilla, Carlos; Peinado-Palomino, Diego; Torres-Pareja, Marta; Mendoza-Laiz, Nuria; Mordillo-Mateos, Laura; Onate-Figuerez, Ana; Arias, Pablo; Aguilar, Juan; Oliviero, Antonio (Elsevier, 2020-09-25)
      [Abstract] Purpose: The understanding of fatigue of the human motor system is important in the fields of ergonomics, sport, rehabilitation and neurology. In order to understand the interactions between fatigue and reaction ...
    • Estudo das propiedades elásticas do cabelo 

      Cacheda Rodríguez, Diego (2017)
      [Resumen:] El pelo es una estructura derivada de la piel, exclusiva de mamíferos y que está muy conservada en su linaje, confiriéndoles ventajas frente a condiciones o agentes externos, entre otras funciones. Está formado ...
    • Hand motor fatigability induced by a simple isometric task in spinal cord injury 

      Onate-Figuérez, Ana; Soto-León, Vanesa; Avendaño-Coy, Alejandro; Mordillo-Mateos, Laura; Pérez-Borrego, Yolanda A.; Redondo-Galán, Carolina; Arias, Pablo; Oliviero, Antonio (MDPI, 2022-08-30)
      [Abstract] This study aimed: (1) to evaluate the hand motor fatigability in people with spinal cord injury (SCI) and compare it with measurements obtained form an able-bodied population; (2) to compare the hand motor ...
    • Lo humano en la obra de Manuel Rivas: un puente entre lo gallego y lo universal 

      Vaz, Jorge (Universidade da Coruña, 2012)
      [Resumo] Manuel Rivas nunca deixa de recalcar a dimensión universal da súa obra coma se quixese apropiarse da soada fórmula das Irmandades da Fala ‘Galicia, célula de universalidade’. De maneira que Galicia se converte, ...
    • Umbilical Cord as a Mesenchymal Stem Cell Source for Treating Joint Pathologies 

      Arufe, M.C.; Fuente, Alexandre de la; Fuentes Boquete, Isaac Manuel; De-Toro, Javier; Blanco García, Francisco J (Baishideng, 2011-06-18)
      [Abstract] Articular cartilage disorders and injuries often result in life-long chronic pain and compromised quality of life. Regrettably, the regeneration of articular cartilage is a continuing challenge for biomedical ...
