Title: [Walking does not require continuity of the medullar "locomotion strip"]. Author: Budakova NN, Shik ML. Journal: Biull Eksp Biol Med; 1980; 89(1):3-6. PubMed ID: 6991019. Abstract: Bilateral lesions interrupting the "locomotor strips" were produced in the medulla of mesencephalic cats. After that locomotion could be evoked by stimulation of the rostral and caudal part of the "strip". However, in some experiments the locomotion threshold rose after the lesion. The relationship between the "locomotor strips" and other brain stem structures and spinal cord is under discussion.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
