Turtle Flexion Reflex Motor Patterns Show Windup, Mediated Partly by L-type Calcium Channels

Windup is a form of multisecond temporal summation in which identical stimuli, delivered seconds apart, trigger increasingly strong neuronal responses. L-type Ca2+ channels have been shown to play an important role in the production of windup of spinal cord neuronal responses, initially in studies o...
