Two central pattern generators from the crab, Cancer borealis, respond robustly and differentially to extreme extracellular pH
The activity of neuronal circuits depends on the properties of the constituent neurons and their underlying synaptic and intrinsic currents. We describe the effects of extreme changes in extracellular pH – from pH 5.5 to 10.4 – on two central pattern generating networks, the stomatogastric and cardi...
