Effects of baclofen on transient neurons in the mudpuppy retina: electrogenic and network actions.

abstract：:A consistent feature of animal locomotion is the capacity to maintain stable movements in changing environments. Here we describe long-term modification of the swing movement of the hind leg in cats in response to repeatedly impeding the movement of the leg. While studying phase transitions in the hind legs, we discov...
