| Abstract: | The oculomotor effects of vibrissae stimulation have been studied in the "encéphale isolé" non-anaesthetized Cat. Intracellular recording of lateral rectus motoneurones showed an excitatory projection via the ipsilateral infraorbital nerve to these motoneurones. The afferent fibers are type A alpha, recuited with a low threshold (0.2-0.5 mA) and convey information about vibrissae displacement. |
