Axonal projections of utricular (UT) afferents in cats were examined by three approaches: recordings of field potentials, labelling of UT nerve fibres by localized infusion of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and intraaxonal infusion of HRP into a single UT afferent. UT afferents project principally into the rostral part of the descending nucleus and the ventral part of the lateral nucleus. Projection into the superior and the medial nuclei and the ipsilateral abducens nucleus were also observed.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.

D005071 Evoked Potentials Electrical responses recorded from nerve, muscle, SENSORY RECEPTOR, or area of the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM following stimulation. They range from less than a microvolt to several microvolts. The evoked potential can be auditory (EVOKED POTENTIALS, AUDITORY), somatosensory (EVOKED POTENTIALS, SOMATOSENSORY), visual (EVOKED POTENTIALS, VISUAL), or motor (EVOKED POTENTIALS, MOTOR), or other modalities that have been reported.
