Mechanisms underlying firing in healthy and sick human motoneurons
Citation: Piotrkiewicz M, Bawa PNS and Schmied A (2015) Mechanisms underlying firing in healthy and sick human motoneurons. In an address to the British Association for the Advancement of Science in Cambridge, Professor Sherrington introduced the terms " motor neurone " and " the final common path, " the latter term implying that all motor commands converge onto the motoneuron which integrates ...
متن کاملBistability in spinal motoneurons in vivo: systematic variations in rhythmic firing patterns.
In the presence of the monoamines serotonin and norepinephrine, spinal motoneurons can exhibit bistable behavior, in which a brief period of excitatory input evokes prolonged self-sustained firing. A brief inhibitory input returns the cell to the quiescent state. To determine whether motoneurons differ in their capacity for bistable behavior, intracellular recordings were obtained in the decere...
متن کاملPrinciples of rhythmic motor pattern generation.
Rhythmic movements are produced by central pattern-generating networks whose output is shaped by sensory and neuromodulatory inputs to allow the animal to adapt its movements to changing needs. This review discusses cellular, circuit, and computational analyses of the mechanisms underlying the generation of rhythmic movements in both invertebrate and vertebrate nervous systems. Attention is pai...
متن کاملNeural mechanisms underlying co-activation of functionally antagonistic motoneurons during a Clione feeding behavior.
The ability of some neural networks to produce multiple motor patterns required during different behaviors is a well-documented phenomenon. We describe here a dramatic transition from coordinated inhibition between two functionally antagonistic groups of motoneurons to their co-activation in the feeding neural network of the predatory mollusk Clione limacina. To seize its prey, Clione uses spec...
متن کاملPattern-generating role for motoneurons in a rhythmically active neuronal network.
The role of motoneurons in central motor pattern generation was investigated in the feeding system of the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis, an important invertebrate model of behavioral rhythm generation. The neuronal network responsible for the three-phase feeding motor program (fictive feeding) has been characterized extensively and divided into populations of central pattern generator (CPG) inte...
