Organelle calcium-derived voltage oscillations in pacemaker neurons drive the motor program for food-seeking behavior in Aplysia

open access: yeseLife, 2021
The expression of motivated behaviors depends on both external and internally arising neural stimuli, yet the intrinsic releasing mechanisms for such variably occurring behaviors remain elusive. In isolated nervous system preparations of Aplysia, we have

Rethinking central pattern generators: A general approach [PDF]

open access: yesNeurocomputing, 2000
Abstract Central pattern generators (CPGs) have traditionally been modeled as sets of coupled bistable oscillators (Marder and Calabrese, Physiol. Rev. 76(3) (1996) 687–717). We present a framework for constructing models which avoid the shortcomings of these traditional models, while remaining biologically plausible.

The generation of antiphase oscillations and synchrony by a rebound-based vertebrate central pattern generator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Many neural circuits are capable of generating multiple stereotyped outputs after different sensory inputs or neuromodulation.We have previously identified the central pattern generator (CPG) forXenopustadpole swimming that involves antiphase ...

Symmetry-breaking in a rate model for a biped locomotion central pattern generator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The timing patterns of animal gaits are produced by a network of spinal neurons called a Central Pattern Generator (CPG). Pinto and Golubitsky studied a four-node CPG for biped dynamics in which each leg is associated with one flexor node and one ...

Semaphorin7A: its role in the control of serotonergic circuits and functional recovery following spinal cord injury

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2022
Serotonin is a monoamine neurotransmitter synthetized in various populations of brainstem neurons. In the spinal cord, descending serotonergic projections regulate postural muscle tone, locomotion and rhythm and coordination of movements via the Central ...

A central pattern generator for controlling sequential activation in a neural architecture for sentence processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The neural architecture for sentence processing is a model of a neural ‘blackboard’ capable of temporarily storing both semantic and syntactic information.

Mapping Connectivity Amongst Interneuronal Components of the Locomotor CPG

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
The basic rhythmic activity characteristic of locomotion in mammals is generated by a neural network, located in the spinal cord, known as the locomotor central pattern generator (CPG).

Sodium-mediated plateau potentials in an identified decisional neuron contribute to feeding-related motor pattern genesis in Aplysia

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2023
Motivated behaviors such as feeding depend on the functional properties of decision neurons to provide the flexibility required for behavioral adaptation.
