Activation of a lobster motor rhythm-generating network by disinhibition of permissive modulatory inputs.

abstract：:The primate posterior thalamus has been proposed to contribute to pain sensation, but its precise role is unclear. This is in part because spinothalamic tract (STT) neurons that project to the posterior thalamus have received little attention. In this study, antidromic mapping was used to identify individual STT neuro...
