Abstract

Spontaneous and evoked activity of single muscle spindles and Golgi receptors was recorded in cats anesthetized with chloralose and urethane and the effect of muscular activity evoked by direct or indirect stimulation on this activity was studied. The contractile activity of the plantaris (fast) and soleus (slow) muscles was shown to reduce the spike discharge both of muscle spindles and of Golgi receptors, and much more so in the case of muscle spindles of the fast muscles than of the slow.
