At least in part, this difficulty is caused by heterogeneous phenotypes of spasticity-causing neurological disorders, all causing spasticity by involving upper motor neurons. The most common clinical symptoms are a series of rapid muscle contractions (clonus), an increased muscle tone (hypertonia), and augmented tendon reflex activity (hyperreflexia). This muscle overactivity is due to disturbed inhibition of spinal reflexes following upper motor neuron dysfunction. Despite a range of physical and pharmacological therapies ameliorating the symptoms, their targeted application remains difficult. Therefore, to date, spasticity impacts rehabilitative therapy, and no therapy exists that reverses the pathology completely. In contrast to the incidence and importance of spasticity, only very little pre-clinical work in animal models exists, and this research is focused on the cat or the rat spastic tail model to decipher altered reflexes and excitability of the motor neurons in the spinal cord. Meanwhile, the characterization of spasticity in clinically more relevant mouse models of neurological disorders, such as stroke, remains understudied. Here, we provide a brief introduction into the clinical knowledge and therapy of spasticity and an in-depth review of pre-clinical studies of spasticity in mice including the current experimental challenges for clinical translation. 000892060 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-525$$a525 - Decoding Brain Organization and Dysfunction (POF4-525)$$cPOF4-525$$fPOF IV$$x0 000892060 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef, Journals: juser.fz-juelich.de 000892060 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aWeiss Lucas, Carolin$$b1 000892060 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aGruhn, Matthias$$b2 000892060 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aBüschges, Ansgar$$b3 000892060 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)131720$$aFink, Gereon R.$$b4 000892060 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aAswendt, Markus$$b5$$eCorresponding author 000892060 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)1466932-8$$a10.1016/j.expneurol.2020.113491$$gVol. 335, p. 113491 -$$p113491 -$$tExperimental neurology$$v335$$x0014-4886$$y2021 000892060 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/892060/files/Wieters_2021_Exp%20Neurol_Introduction%20to%20spaticitiy...post%20print.pdf$$yPublished on 2020-09-29.
