This chapter addresses the neuronal organization of the central pattern generator (CPG) for forelimb locomotion in the cat. The focus is on fictive locomotion, as induced by repetitive …

Central pattern generators (CPGs) are self-organizing biological neural circuits [1][2] that produce rhythmic outputs in the absence of rhythmic input. [3][4][5] They are the source of the tightly …

1998年3月1日 · In the cat, there is good evidence for a spinal rhythm generating system, which most researchers in this field refer to as a locomotor CPG. This rhythm generating structure …

For patients with Rett Syndrome, a dysfunction of the CPG for breathing associated with a mutation in the methyl-CpG binding protein2 (MECP2 gene) ends up affecting rhythm …

2020年12月1日 · Later, it was shown that in the complete absence of somatosensory feedback, a network of interconnected interneurons located within the spinal cord (central pattern …

1998年3月1日 · Many studies showed that cats with complete spinal cord transection can recover locomotor function. These observations were at the basis of the concept of the central pattern …

Central pattern generators (CPGs) are oscillatory neuronal networks controlling rhythmic motor behaviors such as swimming, walking, and breathing. Mul-tifunctional CPGs...

On the assumption that locomotion is partly produced by a central pattern generator (CPG) in the spinal cord of both cat and man, it is essential to learn more about how such a CPG is …

2014年7月21日 · Here, we investigate whether a pair of cat behaviors -- walking and paw shaking -- could be controlled by a single multifunctional CPG exhibiting multistability of oscillatory …

2021年5月30日 · Let us now consider the CPG of a single limb. The hindlimb CPG has by far received the most attention experimentally over several decades, primarily in the cat and then …
