Differences between otolith- and semicircular canal-activated neural circuitry in the vestibular system
2011, Neuroscience ResearchCitation Excerpt :The simple three-neuron arc is the most common circuitry for the VCR. In this set-up, the interneurons of the vestibular nuclei play an important role as a sensory motor terminal that drives motor neurons in the spinal cord (Wilson and Maeda, 1974; Rapoport et al., 1977a,b; Fukushima et al., 1979; Wilson and Melvill Jones, 1979). Similar to the vestibulo-oculomotor system, the vestibular nuclei interneurons are classified as vestibulo-collic (VC) and VOC neurons, with or without ascending axon collaterals to the oculomotor nuclei, respectively (Wilson and Maeda, 1974; Rapoport et al., 1977a,b; Wilson et al., 1979; Uchino and Hirai, 1984; Isu et al., 1988; Shinoda et al., 1986, 1988; Uchino et al., 1988, 1990; Uchino and Isu, 1992b).
