This distribution is comparable to the topographical distribution of cortico-DCN neurons in cats.
These findings thus demonstrate that an extensive deafferentation procedure involving mandibular as well as maxillary tooth pulps can produce statistically significant changes in the physiological properties of V brainstem neurons of adult cats that may last at least 4 weeks postoperatively.
This conclusion is supported by the failure to find, in Golgi-impregnated material, neurons with characteristics commonly attributed to Golgi type II neurons in VP of cats.
Our results suggest that the sustained and Off responses of A1 neurons underlie the duration discrimination behavior of cats.
All of the characteristics observed are in excellent agreement with electrophysiologically measured properties of neurons in striate cortex of cats.
In conclusion, the data presented here for retinal slip neurons in the NOT-DTN of strabismic cats closely resemble those from 3-wk-old kittens where no functional cortical input to the NOT-DTN is present.
These results suggest that the influences of areas 17, 18, and 19 on the response properties of PMLS neurons are the same when the properties first reach maturity as in adult cats.
