Intrinsic spinal networks, known as central pattern generators (CPGs), control the timing and
pattern of the muscle activity underlying locomotion in mammals. This review discusses new …

Neuronal networks within the spinal cord directly control rhythmic movements of the
arms/forelimbs and legs/hindlimbs during locomotion in mammals. For an effective …

Studies of locomotion in mice suggest that circuits controlling the alternating between left
and right limbs may have a modular organization with distinct locomotor circuits being …

Locomotion is controlled by spinal networks that generate rhythm and coordinate left-right
and flexor-extensor patterning. Defined populations of spinal interneurons have been linked …

C. elegans is widely used to dissect how neural circuits and genes generate behavior.
During locomotion, worms initiate backward movement to change locomotion direction …

This review revolves primarily around segmental feedback systems established by muscle
spindle and Golgi tendon organ afferents, as well as spinal recurrent inhibition via Renshaw …

Local circuits in the spinal cord that generate locomotion are termed central pattern
generators (CPGs). These provide coordinated bilateral control over the normal limb …

Although injured axons in mammalian spinal cords do not regenerate, some recovery of
locomotor function following incomplete injury can be observed in patients and animal …

Central pattern generators (CPGs) are generally defined as networks of neurons capable of
enabling the production of central commands, specifically controlling stereotyped, rhythmic …

The basic motor patterns underlying rhythmic limb movements during locomotion are
generated by neuronal networks located within the spinal cord. These networks are called …
