Oscillation in motor pattern-generating networks
Curr Op Neurobiol, 5 (6): 816--23 (December 1995)
Abstract
Oscillation in motor pattern generators is driven either by pacemaker neurons with inherent bursting properties or through network interactions. In a few examples in invertebrates and lower vertebrates, the mechanisms by which reciprocal inhibition combines with inherent membrane properties to produce network oscillation are beginning to emerge. A recently developed theoretical framework provides a context for understanding and comparing these findings.
