Respiratory rhythm generation: preBötzinger neuron discharge patterns and persistent sodium currentD R McCrimmon
Department of Physiology and Institute for Neuroscience, Northwestern University Medical School Chicago, Illinois 60611-3008, USA
Adv Exp Med Biol 499:147-52. 2001..This finding is not inconsistent with the postulated role in rhythm generation. However, it does suggest that other neuronal properties must act in concert with the persistent current to define a unique population of pacemaker neurons...
