Abstract
The pyloric CPG in the stomatogastric nervous system of crustaceans can produce a wide repertoire of motor patterns, both in vivo and in vitro. This flexibility in the network operation, relies on endogenous properties shared by all the neurons of the pyloric network, i.e. the ability to produce endogenous bursting pacemaker potentials. These properties are controlled by modulatory inputs. By inducing, modulating and suppressing regenerative properties of the pyloric neurons, modulatory inputs can start, maintain and terminate a basic pyloric pattern. They can also transform this basic pattern by changing period of the rhythm, phasing, duration and intensity of neuronal discharges, and number of active neurons. Finally, simultaneous modulation of several networks can create complex patterns, switch neurons between two circuits and fuse several CPGs.
