Abstrakt: In most mammals, postural soleus muscles are involved in the maintenance of the stability of the body in the gravitational field of Earth. It is well established that immediately after a laboratory rat is exposed to conditions of weightlessness (parabolic flight) or simulated microgravity (hindlimb suspension/unloading), a sharp decrease in soleus muscle electrical activity occurs. However, starting from the 3rd day of mechanical unloading, soleus muscle electrical activity begins to increase and reaches baseline levels approximately by the 14th day of hindlimb suspension. This phenomenon, observed in the course of rat hindlimb suspension, was named the "spontaneous electrical activity of postural muscle". The present review discusses spinal mechanisms underlying the development of such spontaneous activity of rat soleus muscle and the effect of this activity on intracellular signaling in rat soleus muscle during mechanical unloading.
