Through intracellular observations of the cat spinal motoneuron both mono- and polysynaptic reflex arcs were shown to participate in repetitive activation of stretch reflex. ... Repeated electric stimulation of muscle nerves elicited monosynaptic "vibratory" EPSPs and a polysynaptic "augmenting" EPSP in the motoneuron.

Experimental procedures followed the guidelines of the local animal ethics committee. ... Activation of the recto-IAS reflex by rectal distension. Gradual and sustained rectal distension for 5 min at 20-min intervals constantly elicited the rectoanal reflex, causing rectal contractions and IAS relaxations in each guinea pig.
