Title: Site on inhibition of the spino-bulbo-spinal reflex on stimulation of the anterior lobe of the cerebellum. Author: Strauss P, Duda P, Pavlásek J, Slovácek M. Journal: Physiol Bohemoslov; 1978; 27(2):151-8. PubMed ID: 149318. Abstract: The effect of stimulation of the anterior lobe (AL) of the cerebellum on spinobulbo-spinal (SBS) reflex activity evoked by somatic and splanchnic afferentation was studied in chloralose-anaesthetized cats. Unit activity synchronous with the SBS component of the efferent discharge was observed at the level of motoneurons, descending axons of the dorsolateral and ventral funiculi and neurones of the reticular formation (RF). Conditioning stimulation of the AL inhibited this unit activity. Reticular formation units influenced from the AL had direct contact with segmental structures; these results showed that disappearance of the SBS reflex during AL conditioning is associated with the depressant effect of the cerebellar cortex on the reticular formation.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
