Central Pattern Generators

Networks of nerve cells that control the firing patterns of MOTOR NEURONS to produce rhythmic movements such as MASTICATION; WALKING; SWIMMING; RESPIRATION; and PERISTALSIS. The nerve cells in a network that controls the firing patterns (timing, phasing, and intensity) of MOTOR NEURONS resulting in a coordinated activation of muscle cells that produces rhythmic movements such as MASTICATION; LOCOMOTION; RESPIRATION; and PERISTALSIS.
