1. On decerebellectomized sheep lightly anaesthetized with fluothane, the activity of 49 neurones in the pontine relay (see Car et al., 1975) was recorded with microelectrodes following stimulation of afferents in the superior laryngeal nerve (SLN), 2. These pontine neurones (PN) exhibited an "initi

Extracellular activity of swallowing neurons (SN) in the region of the hypoglossal (XIIth) motor nucleus was studied in sheep anesthetized with halothane. Eighty six SN exhibited a discharge closely linked to swallowing electromyographic (EMG) activity of the geniohyoΓ―d (GH) muscle induced by stimul
Stimulation of neurons in the periaqueductal gray (PAG) produces antinociception that is mediated in part by noradrenergic neurons that innervate the spinal cord dorsal horn. Because norepinephrine-containing neurons are not found in the PAG, noncatecholamine neurons in the PAG must project to, and
This study examines the nature of the efferent projection of omnipause neurons (OPNs) in the midline pontine tegmentum to medium-lead burst neurons (BNs) in the Forel's field H (FFH), both of which exhibit activities related to vertical eye movements, using chronically prepared alert cats. Antidromi
