Spinal circuitry produces the rhythm and patterning of locomotion. However, both descending and sensory inputs are required to initiate and adapt locomotion to the environment. Spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts descending controls of the spinal cord, producing paralysis.

Spinal cord neurons integrate sensory and descending information to produce motor output. The expression of transcription factors has been used to dissect out the neuronal components of circuits underlying behaviors. However, most of the canonical populations of interneurons are heterogeneous and require additional criteria to determine functional subpopulations.
