The role of specific voltage-activated and calcium-activated potassium currents in shaping motor neuron firing output during rhythmic motor activity
Rhythmic muscle contractions underlie a number of behaviors, such as respiration, ingestion, and locomotion, which are necessary for survival. Though in many cases motor neurons (MNs) themselves do not generate the basic motor rhythm, research suggests that the intrinsic properties of MNs may shape...
