| Resumen en inglés | Previous studies suggest that cross-education of strength may be modulated by increased corticospinal excitability of the ipsilateral primary motor cortex (M1) due to cross-activation. Conventional anodal-transcranial direct current stimulation (TDCS) has been shown to acutely increase bilateral cortical excitability and impart a cross-education effect. However, no study has examined the influence of bilateral TDCS of both M1 (i.e., ipsi-and contralateral M1) and how it affects corticospinal excitability, cross-activation and cross-education of muscle strength.METHOD: Twelve participants (8 women and 4 men; aged 18-50 years) underwent three conditions in a randomized crossover design: (1) submaximal grip training and single-site unilateral-high definition-TDCS (ipsilateral to the training side) (2) submaximal grip training and bilateral anodal-high definition-TDCS, and (3) submaximal grip training and sham-high definition-TDCS. Submaximal gripping task involved a single-session of unilateral training which was squeezing the transducer at 70% of maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) grip force and performing four sets of 10 isometric contractions held steadily for 5 seconds. Anodal-high definition-TDCS was applied for 15 min at 1.5 mA over right M1 (unilateral single-site) or left and right M1s (bilateral), and in a sham condition during submaximal grip training. Participants were pseudorandomized to receive either single-site or bilateral M1 stimulation with each session separated by one-week. Before and after each session, MVIC force of ipsilateral and contralateral gripping, ipsilateral stimulus-response curve, short-interval intracortical inhibition (SICI), cortical silent period (CSP), intracortical facilitation (ICF), long-interval intracortical inhibition (LICI), and cross-activation were measured, using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) targeting the wrist flexor/extensor muscles |
