Prolonged asymmetric vestibular stimulation induces opposite, long-term effects on self-motion perception and ocular responses.
Vito Enrico Pettorossi,Roberto Panichi,Fabio Massimo Botti,Artemis Kyriakareli,A Ferraresi,Mario Faralli,Marco Schieppati,Adolfo M. Bronstein +7 more
TL;DR: Long‐lasting asymmetric stimulation of standing humans about the earth‐vertical axis induced different adaptive mechanisms in the perception of body motion and in the vestibulo‐ocular reflex (VOR), which may enhance awareness toward the side where the body is moving faster, while improving eye stabilizing properties of the VOR.

Self-motion perception and vestibulo-ocular reflex during whole body yaw rotation in standing subjects: The role of head position and neck proprioception
Roberto Panichi,Fabio Massimo Botti,A Ferraresi,Mario Faralli,Artemis Kyriakareli,Marco Schieppati,Vito Enrico Pettorossi +6 more
TL;DR: Through its effects on motion perception and reflex gain, head position improved gaze stability and enhanced self-motion perception in the direction of the head deviation, which was enhanced when the head was kept turned toward the side of body rotation and decreased in the opposite direction.

Selective contribution of each hamstring muscle to anterior cruciate ligament protection and tibiofemoral joint stability in leg-extension exercise: a simulation study
TL;DR: A biomechanical model was developed to simulate the selective effect of the co-contraction force provided by each hamstring muscle on the shear and compressive tibiofemoral joint reaction forces, during open kinetic-chain knee-extension exercises.

Long-lasting effects of neck muscle vibration and contraction on self-motion perception of vestibular origin
Vito Enrico Pettorossi,Roberto Panichi,Fabio Massimo Botti,Andrea Biscarini,G. M. Filippi,Marco Schieppati +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the perception of whole-body yaw-rotation is not only dependent on accurate vestibular information, but is modulated by proprioceptive information related to previously experienced position of head with respect to trunk.

Kv1.1 knock-in ataxic mice exhibit spontaneous myokymic activity exacerbated by fatigue, ischemia and low temperature
O. Brunetti,Paola Imbrici,Fabio Massimo Botti,Vito Enrico Pettorossi,Maria Cristina D'Adamo,Mario Valentino,Christian Zammit,Marina Mora,Sara Gibertini,Giuseppe Di Giovanni,Richard Muscat,Mauro Pessia +11 more
TL;DR: Findings provide direct evidence that identifies the motor nerve as an important generator of myokymic activity, that dysfunction of Kv1.1 channels alters Ca2 + homeostasis in motor axons, and also strongly suggest that muscle fatigue contributes more than PNS fatigue to exacerbate theMyokymia/neuromyotonia phenotype.
