Spinal Cord Injury Significantly Alters the Properties of Reticulospinal Neurons: I. Biophysical Properties, Firing Patterns, Excitability, and Synaptic Inputs

Following spinal cord injury (SCI) for larval lampreys, descending axons of reticulospinal (RS) neurons regenerate, and locomotor function gradually recovers. In the present study, the electrophysiological properties of uninjured (left)-injured (right) pairs of large, identified RS neurons were comp...
