Responses of caudal medullary raphe neurons to natural vestibular stimulation.

abstract：:1. Intracellular recordings were made in 427 phrenic motoneurons from kittens (in four stages of postnatal development, ranging from 2 to 14 wk) and in 72 motoneurons from adult cats. These experiments were performed to determine how the pattern of spontaneous discharge changes in phrenic motoneurons during developmen...
