The rodent corticospinal tract (CST ... the number of branches by the number of collaterals emerging from the ventral tract to obtain a measure of the number of branches per collaterals.

The corticospinal tract is known to be a major neural tract for motor function in the human brain. Several studies have reported on injury of the corticospinal tract by transtentorial herniation.

Researchers at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have found a way to stimulate the growth of axons, which may spell the dawn of a new beginning on chronic SCI treatments.

However, there is limited support for the effect of CAI on corticospinal excitability of the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle, specifically. Traditional corticospinal excitability measurements are ...

The corticospinal tract of mice exhibits some regenerative ... a few axons appeared to grow past the lesion via the ventral column. Axons extended from the gray matter rostral to the injury ...
