Spinal cord injury involves damage to both neurons and glia
• Initial damage is likely limited to a small region
• Hemorrhaging from broken vessels swells the cord, putting pressure on healthy neurons
• Injured neurons release glutamate at very high levels, over exciting neighboring neurons
• Cyst and glutamate kill myelin producing cells
• After a few weeks, a wall of glia cells forms

Motor neurons reside in the ventral region of the gray matter of the spinal cord. They collect into pools that innervate a single muscle.
Kandel ER et al. (1991)

A motor unit: a motor neuron and all muscle fibers that it innervates
Motor unit size depends on function

Polio
Poliovirus invades the motor neurons, killing them.
Muscle fibers in the motor unit are paralyzed.
Neighboring motor neurons grow sprouts to take over orphaned fibers, creating a giant motor unit.

Force produced by a muscle depends on the rate of action potentials from the motor nerve.
Kandel ER et al. (1991)

Force produced through direct electrical stimulation of the soleus muscle of a cat. This muscle’s function is to extend the ankle.
Force produced by a muscle depends on its length
