The persistent sodium current generates pacemaker activities in the central pattern generator for locomotion and regulates the locomotor rhythm

S Tazerart, L Vinay, F Brocard - Journal of Neuroscience, 2008 - Soc Neuroscience
Rhythm generation in neuronal networks relies on synaptic interactions and pacemaker
properties. Little is known about the contribution of the latter mechanisms to the integrated …

Activity of Hb9 interneurons during fictive locomotion in mouse spinal cord

AC Kwan, SB Dietz, WW Webb… - Journal of …, 2009 - Soc Neuroscience
Hb9 interneurons (Hb9 INs) are putative components of the mouse spinal locomotor central
pattern generator (CPG) and candidates for the rhythm-generating kernel. Studies in slices …
