Descending projections from the superior colliculus (SC) motor map to the saccadic omnipause neurons (OPNs) were examined in monkeys by using anterograde transport of tritiated leucine. The SC was divided into three zones: the rostral pole of the motor map, a small horizontal saccade zone in central
Results of previous studies have suggested that the rostral superior colliculus (SC), which corresponds to the representation of the central visual field, is involved in the control of accommodation and active fixation. To clarify the functional interaction between accommodation and active fixation
The aim of the present study was to identify synaptic contacts from axons originating in the superior colliculus with thalamic neurons projecting to the lateral nucleus of the amygdala. Axons from the superior colliculus were traced with the anterograde tracers Phaseolus vulgaris leucoagglutinin or
