- Computer Modeling of a Spinal Reflex Circuit Bruno L. Dalcin Frederico Alan Cruz Célia Martins Cortez Emmanuel P. L. Passos Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas We used a set of properties of the interactions among the spinal neurons in order to develop a computermodel for a spinal reflex circuit. The model equations take into account the synaptic characteristics of thesomatodendritic membrane of neurons in a morphofunctional unity of the spinal reflex activity. This model isbased on the idea that the responses of spinal alpha-motoneurons to a sensorial stimulation can be modulated bythe serial activation of a motor command chain. We developed a Fortran program for simulating a physiologicalsituation. The results are discussed in terms of available experimental data for the motoneuron firing rate. 2005 artículo científico 0103-9733 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=46435613 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=464 Brazilian Journal of Physics application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Física Brazilian Journal of Physics (Brasil) Num.4A Vol.35
