Reticulospinal neurons controlling forward and backward swimming in the lamprey.
Most vertebrates are capable of two forms of locomotion, forward and backward, strongly differing in the patterns of motor coordination. Basic mechanisms generating these patterns are located in the spinal cord; they are activated and regulated by supraspinal commands. In the lamprey, these commands are transmitted by reticulospinal (RS) neurons. The aim of this study was to reveal groups of RS...
متن کاملResponses of reticulospinal neurons in intact lamprey to pitch tilt.
In the swimming lamprey, a postural control system maintains a definite orientation of the animal's longitudinal axis in relation to the horizon (pitch angle). Operation of this system is based on vestibular reflexes. Important elements of the postural network are the reticulospinal (RS) neurons, which are driven by vestibular input and transmit commands for postural corrections from the brain ...
متن کاملDifferential effects of the reticulospinal system on locomotion in lamprey.
Specific effects of stimulating different parts of the reticulospinal (RS) system on the spinal locomotor pattern are described in lamprey. In the in vitro brain stem and spinal cord preparation, microstimulation in different areas of the reticular formation was performed by ejecting a small amount of -glutamate from a micropipette. These areas were distributed over the four reticular nuclei of...
متن کاملResponses of reticulospinal neurons in the lamprey to lateral turns.
When swimming, the lamprey maintains a definite orientation of its body in the vertical planes, in relation to the gravity vector, as the result of postural vestibular reflexes. Do the vestibular-driven mechanisms also play a role in the control of the direction of swimming in the horizontal (yaw) plane, in which the gravity cannot be used as a reference direction? In the present study, we addr...
