Midbrain reticular influences upon single neurons in lateral geniculate nucleus

Midbrain reticular influences upon single neurons in lateral geniculate nucleus

T OGAWA. Science. .

Abstract

The effect of electrical stimulation of the midbrain reticular formation upon patterns of discharge of single lateral geniculate neurons was studied. Data were processed by means of a 256-channel scaler analyzer. The rate of spontaneous discharge of geniculate neurons was raised by electrical stimulation of the reticular formation and their ability to respond to intermittent light was enhanced.
