Popis: Small horseradish peroxidase injections in the perigeniculate nucleus (PGN) or the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) gave retrograde labeling of many cells in the pontomesencephalic reticular formation (RF), the nuclei raphe dorsalis and centralis linearis, locus coeruleus, nucleus of the optic tract and nucleus parabigeminalis. Antidromic stimulation was used to identify neurons in the RF projecting to the PGN-LGN complex. Threshold mapping through the PGN and the LGN shows separate projection from the reticular formation to the PGN and the LGN.
