Abstract

The thalamo-cortical neurons conveying impulses responsible for cortical recruiting and spindling activities were identified by a combined electrophysiological and anatomical method using horseradish peroxidase in cats. The neurons relating to the frontal motor cortex (areas 6 and 4) were found to be distributed mainly in the ventromedial part of the ventral anterior and ventral lateral nuclear complex of the thalamus. The neurons relating to the parietal association cortex (area 5) were seen to be localized chiefly in the dorsolateral part of the nuclear complex.
