Multiple patterns and components of persistent inward current with serotonergic modulation in locomotor activity-related neurons in Cfos-EGFP mice.

abstract：:Understanding how the brain processes sensory input to generate behavior remains an important problem in neuroscience. Towards this end, it is useful to compare results obtained across multiple species to gain understanding as to the general principles of neural coding. Here we investigated hindbrain pyramidal cell ac...
