Research Abstract |
Suckling movements play an important role to acquire the energy for living in the mammalians during postnatal period. The suckling movements are rhythmic movement evoked by tactile stimulation of the lip or the oral mucosa. It is known that the suckling rhythm is generated in neuronal networks in the brainstem, but kinds of interneurons involved in the neuronal networks are unclear. In the present study, we analyzed interneurons involved in the suckling rhythm generator using an isolated brainstem preparation from neonatal mice.
