Popis: In anesthetized cats cerebellar Purkinje cell activity was recorded. During different sections of a passive wrist movement, electrical stimulation was applied to the corresponding hand region of the sensory-motor cortex, eliciting small dorsal or ventral flexions. The discharge patterns of simple and complex spikes of the Purkinje cell, evoked by passive movements, could be modified by the cortical stimulation either facilitating or diminishing the responses or disrupting the established relationship between complex and simple spikes of the Purkinje cell.
