Abstract | Understanding how inhibitory pathways influence motor cortical activity during fatiguing contractions may provide valuable insight into mechanisms associated with multiple sclerosis (MS) muscle activation. Short-latency afferent inhibition (SAI) reflects inhibitory interactions between the somatosensory cortex and the motor cortex, and although SAI is typically reduced with MS, it is unknown how SAI is regulated during exercise-induced fatigue. The current study examined how SAI modulates motor evoked potentials (MEPs) during fatiguing contractions. Fourteen people with relapsing-remitting MS (39 ± 6 years, nine female) and 10 healthy individuals (36 ± 6 years, six female) participated. SAI was induced by stimulation of the median nerve that was paired with TMS over the motor representation of the abductor pollicis brevis. A contraction protocol was employed that depressed force generating capacity using a sustained 3-min 15% MVC, immediately followed by a low-intensity (15% MVC) intermittent contraction protocol so that MEP and SAI could be measured during the rest phases of each duty cycle. Similar force, electromyography and MEP responses were observed between groups. However, the MS group had significantly reduced SAI during the contraction protocol compared to the healthy control group (p < .001). Despite the MS group reporting greater scores on the Fatigue Severity Scale and Modified Fatigue Impact Scale, these scales did not correlate with inhibitory measures. As there were no between-group differences in SSEPs, MS-related SAI differences during the fatiguing contractions were most likely associated with disease-related changes in central integration. |
