摘要
A study of the pathways and ascending vestibular projections was carried out in the cat after unilateral injection of tritiated leucine into the rostral vestibular complex. Radioautographic analysis revealed a gradual decline in the density of labeling as ascending fibers progressed toward more rostral relays. The pathways and projections were very compact in the oculomotor nuclei, became less intense in the Cajal and Darkschwitsch nuclei, and thinned out considerably until they reached a transitional zone in the thalamus between the ventrobasal and ventrolateral complexes. These results confirmed neurophysiological and neurohistological findings. They provide the 1st anatomical evidence concerning the existence of vestibulothalamic projections and pathways.
