  • Title: [Central program for interaction between the hindlimbs of cats during locomotion].
    Author: Baev KV, Zavadskaia TV.
    Journal: Neirofiziologiia; 1979; 11(1):65-73. PubMed ID: 424026.
    Abstract:
    Central program of interaction of hindlimbs during fictitious locomotion expressed in the time structure of motor discharges in nerves to different muscles was investigated in decerebrated and spinal immobilized cats. It was shown that in the decerebrated animals the program of interaction of hindlimbs (alternative or synphase) is determined by interaction of the flexor half-centres. The latter work either in-phase or out-of-phase. The character of activity of extensor half-centres is determined secondarily by alternating interaction of each of them with homolateral flexor half-centre. After injection of DOPA the central program of interaction of hindlimbs can be determined by synchronous work of extensor half-centres.
