| Abstract | 1. To investigate whether dorsal horn interneurones with input from group II muscle afferents induce depolarization of sensory fibres, simultaneous recordings were made from single interneurones in the sacral segments and from sacral dorsal root filaments using the spike-triggered averaging technique. 2. The spike potentials of eighteen out of thirty-eight interneurones tested were followed by dorsal root potentials (DRPs). The DRPs occurred at latencies of 2 and 6-8 ms. Interneurones evoking DRPs at latencies of up to 2 ms are considered likely to be last-order interneurones in pathways of presynaptic inhibition, while those inducing DRPs at longer latencies are considered likely to be first-order interneurones. The former were activated by peripheral afferents with somewhat longer latencies than the latter. However, all interneurones were co-activated by group II muscle and cutaneous afferents, indicating that the depolarization of group II muscle afferents, which these afferents induce, may be mediated by the same interneurones. 3. DRPs evoked by electrical stimulation of peripheral nerves were recorded from both sacral and midlumbar dorsal root filaments. The amplitudes of these DRPs were closely related to the potency with which group II afferents of various nerves activate dorsal horn interneurones in the sacral and midlumbar segments and group II afferents contributed to them more effectively than group I afferents. The second stimulus in a train was more effective than the first, while a third stimulus had little additional effect, indicating that the interneurones involved are relatively easily activated. 4. Intraspinal stimuli applied within the dorsal horn, at the sites where the largest field potentials of group II origin were recorded, evoked distinct DRPs. However, the location of the first- and last-order interneurones in pathways of primary afferent depolarization (PAD) could not be differentiated by this approach because the same stimuli induced positive potentials, which masked the onset of DRPs and precluded localization of the sites from which DRPs might be evoked monosynaptically. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
