| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to clarify the effect of unilateral muscle damage induced by eccentric exercise on bilateral motor deficit, and the mechanism, using electrophysiological measurements, including transcranial magnetic and direct current stimulation (tDCS). We showed that unilateral muscle damage enhanced the bilateral deficit by decreasing maximum voluntary contraction on the damaged and intact sides. In addition, modified interhemispheric inhibition due to increased cortical excitability by tDCS affected two-hand motor function. The results suggest that modified interhemispheric inhibition, which is due to increased cortical excitability by unilateral muscle damage, plays a role in enhanced bilateral motor deficit.
