Innervation by W-type retinal ganglion cells of superior colliculus neurons projecting to pulvinar nuclei in cats
Abstract
Neurons of the cat superior colliculus (SC) sending their axons to the pulvinar nuclei were identified electrophysiologically as the ones responding antidromically to electrical stimulation of the pulvinar nuclei. They were located in the superficial layers of SC and found to be innervated by axons of W-type ganglion cells of the retina.
