5-Hydroxytryptamine increases spontaneous activity of subthalamic neurons in the rat.

abstract：:The facial nucleus (FN) has been known as a motor nucleus to control the activity of the facial skeletal muscles by its efferent somatic motoneurons. Much less, however, is known about the non-motor control functions of its interneurons. The present study was designed to investigate if the interneurons of the FN parti...
