Generation of torsional and vertical eye position signals by the interstitial nucleus of Cajal.
The neural integrator, which converts eye velocity signals into position signals, is central to oculomotor theory. Similar integrators are probably necessary in any neural system that changes and maintains muscular tension. The integrator for horizontal eye position is in the pons, but the locations of the vertical and torsional integrators have not been clearly defined. Recording three-dimensi...
متن کاملEarly abnormal visual experience induces strabismus in infant monkeys.
We measured ocular alignment in the horizontal direction for 17 monkeys reared under deprivation paradigms that involved monocular defocus, monocular occlusion and optically corrected aphakia coupled with continuous or partial occlusion of the fellow eye. Alignment was measured at 3 and 7 months with a photographic corneal light reflex method. Results showed that a majority of the monkeys in ea...
متن کاملMuscimol inactivation of caudal fastigial nucleus and posterior interposed nucleus in monkeys with strabismus.
Previously, we showed that neurons in the supraoculomotor area (SOA), known to encode vergence angle in normal monkeys, encode the horizontal eye misalignment in strabismic monkeys. The SOA receives afferent projections from the caudal fastigial nucleus (cFN) and the posterior interposed nucleus (PIN) in the cerebellum. The objectives of the present study were to investigate the potential roles...
متن کاملThree-dimensional eye-head coordination after injection of muscimol into the interstitial nucleus of Cajal (INC).
The interstitial nucleus of Cajal (INC) is thought to be the "neural integrator" for torsional/vertical eye position and head posture. Here, we investigated the coordination of eye and head movements after reversible INC inactivation. Three-dimensional (3-D) eye-head movements were recorded in three head-unrestrained monkeys using search coils. INC sites were identified by unit recording/electr...
متن کاملTendon Expansion with Fascia Lata in Treatment of A-Pattern Strabismus due to Superior Oblique Overaction
Background: In 1991, Wright described a superior oblique expander procedure for browns syndrome and superior overaction with good results. Originally, this procedure has been performed with silicone band expander. The aim of this study was to report the results of treatment of a series of patients with A-pattern strabismus associated with overacting superior oblique muscle using the fascia lata...
