Non-Crh Glutamatergic Neurons in Barrington`s Nucleus Control Micturition via Glutamatergic Afferents from the Midbrain and Hypothalamus (Current Biology)

Verstegen et al. shine light on Barrington`s nucleus, in which neuron subpopulations have distinct activity patterns important for coordinating downstream bladder control. Furthermore, they identify nodes on the pathway to activate the micturition control center, with different roles, reflex, or voluntary behavior integration, for the afferent sites
