Central core modulation of spontaneous oscillations and sensory transmission in thalamocortical systems

Central core (brainstem, diencephalic and basal forebrain) systems influence the functional modes of thalamic and cortical neurons during behavioral states of vigilance. Recent studies in vivo and in vitro have focused on the cellular properties of central core systems and their modulation of slow sleep oscillations, fast rhythms during arousal and dreaming state, and the fine inhibitory sculpturing of afferent signals.
