Non-linear membrane responses of sacral sphincter motoneurons in the decerebrate cat
Tonic activity of the external urethral and anal sphincter muscles is necessary to maintain urinary and fecal continence. Excitatory descending and segmental synaptic inputs facilitate the activity of the sphincters during continence. However, intrinsic properties of the sphincter motoneurons may a...
