Abstract
Responses of substantia nigra (SN) pars compacta (SNc) and reticulata (SNr) neurons to sensory stimulation and movement were investigated in awake Macaca fascicularis. Concern was assigned to polysensory and sensory / motor convergence on the same cell, which were found in 12% and 9% of the neurons, respectively. Others were modality specific (35%) or unresponsive (44%). The convergence lends support to the notion that SN plays an important role in sensory-motor integration.
