The expression of plateau potentials in spinal motor neurons is regulated by neuromodulatory substances. Recent experiments have shed new light on this regulation at the cellular level. It is now possible to evaluate the existence of plateau potentials in intact organisms, including humans, and to address the functional role of plateau potentials in motor control, as well as in information transfer in the brain.
脊髓运动神经元中平台电位的表达受神经调质物质的调节。最近的实验在细胞水平上为这种调节提供了新的线索。现在有可能评估包括人类在内的完整生物体中平台电位的存在,并探讨平台电位在运动控制以及大脑信息传递中的功能作用。
