Modeling short-term synaptic plasticity at the calyx of Held using in vivo-like stimulation patterns.

abstract：:1. The intersegmental coordination during undulatory locomotion in lamprey is characterized by a constant phase lag between consecutive segments, that is, the ratio between the intersegmental time lag and the cycle duration remains constant. It is shown that the spinal 5-HT (serotonin) system can, in a graded fashion,...

Cooling the skin of the foot is often used to induce anesthesia to determine the role of skin in motor and balance control. The effect of cooling on the four classes of mechanoreceptor in the skin is largely unknown, and thus the aim of the present stu...
