Quantification of Different Classes of Canal‐Related Vestibular Nuclei Neuron Responses to Linear Acceleration

Abstract: A change in otolith activity modifies the dynamic responses of both the and the vertical4 vestibuloocular reflexes (VOR). In response to rotations in vertical planes, dynamic otolith activity is necessary for compensatory eye movements in the rabbit5 and the cat.6 Therefore, significant convergence of otolith and canal information in the VOR pathway must occur.The activity of single vestibular nuclei neurons in the decerebrate rat were recorded extracellularly during sinusoidal linear translation in the horizo… Show more

“…The simulations presented here are relevant whenever broadly-tuned response behavior may be created by convergence of narrowly-tuned inputs, as for example in primary otolith afferents (Fernandez and Goldberg 1976b;Dickman et al 1991) and vestibular nuclei neurons Bush et al 1992). The goal of the present investigation has been to attempt to explain the observed tuning ratios exhibited by primary otolith afferents (Dickman et al 1991) and central vestibular nuclei neurons ) that respond in the linear range of their force-response curves.…”

“…1A). The output of the convergent neuron could represent any broadlytuned vestibular nuclei neuron Bush et al 1992) or any broadly-tuned primary afferent (Dickman et al 1991). In the former case, the input units would correspond to narrowly-tuned primary otolith afferents projecting to the vestibular nuclei.…”
