Synchrony among rhythmical facial tremor, neocortical ‘ALPHA’ waves, and thalamic non-sensory neuronal bursts in intact awake rats
Abstract
A fine (approx. 9 c/sec) tremor of the jaw and/or vibrissae was observed in normal rats while they were standing still and not showing gross bodily movement. The tremor was distinctly different in frequency, intensity, and behavioral context, from movements involved in gnawing, tooth chattering, or exploratory sniffing. Individual tremor movements (recorded as EMG) occurred in synchrony with individual bursts of multiunit activity (MUA) …
