Some observations on the fiber connections of the di‐ and mesencephalon in the cat. I. Fiber connections of the tectum opticum

The effect of extensive mesencephalic central gray lesions on responses to reinforcing brain stimulation

“…Central gray connections with positive reinforcing areas (the lateral and posterior hypothalamus and septum) and negatively reinforcing areas (the periventricular hypothalamic structures) have been described by Bucher & Burgi (1953), Cowan, Guillery, & Powell (1964), Guillery (1957), Morest (1961) and Nauta (1956Nauta ( , 1958Nauta ( , 1960. Connections with the lateral hypothalamus and septum are primarily via the medial forebrain bundle, mammillary peduncle, and mammillotegmental tract.…”

Mammals

“…Before their decussation, they give off thin collaterals that ascend to the (sub)thalamus (cat:Bucher and Biirgi 1950; Grantyn and Grantyn 1982;Moschovakis and Karabelas 1985; Figs. Before their decussation, they give off thin collaterals that ascend to the (sub)thalamus (cat:Bucher and Biirgi 1950; Grantyn and Grantyn 1982;Moschovakis and Karabelas 1985; Figs.…”

Anatomy of the Afferent Auditory Nervous System of Mammals

“…Degeneration on the ipsilateral side was found in this nucleus following lesions of the superior colliculus and striate cortex (BUCHER and BURGI, 1950;ALTMAN and CARPENTER, 1961; VAN NOORT, 1969;ALTMAN, 1962;RAFOLS and MATZKE, 1970). It has been reported by BOWSHER (1961) MOREST, 1965b) is also innervated from the spinothalamic system and medial lemniscus, although MEHLER (1966) did not find degeneration in this nucleus following lesions of the somatic system.…”
