Saccade suppression by electrical microstimulation in monkey caudate nucleus.
It has been suggested that the caudate nucleus, the input stage of the basal ganglia, facilitates and suppresses saccade initiation based on its anatomical characteristics. Although the involvement of the caudate nucleus in saccade facilitation has been shown previously, it is still unclear whether the caudate nucleus is also involved in saccade suppression. Here, we revealed the direct involve...
متن کاملSaccade Reaction Times Are Influenced by Caudate Microstimulation Following and Prior to Visual Stimulus Appearance
Several cognitive models suggest that saccade RTs are controlled flexibly not only by mechanisms that accumulate sensory evidence after the appearance of a sensory stimulus (poststimulus mechanisms) but also by mechanisms that preset the saccade control system before the sensory event (prestimulus mechanisms). Consistent with model predictions, neurons in structures tightly related to saccade i...
متن کاملPerturbation of combined saccade-vergence movements by microstimulation in monkey superior colliculus.
Perturbation of combined saccade-vergence movements by microstimulation in monkey superior colliculus. This study investigated the role of the monkey superior colliculus (SC) in the control of visually (V)-guided combined saccade-vergence movements by assessing the perturbing effects of microstimulation. We elicited an electrical saccade (E) by stimulation (in 20% of trials) in the SC while the...
متن کاملMemory guided saccade deficit after caudate nucleus lesion.
The role of the caudate nucleus in ocular motor control is not well determined in humans. Eye movements were recorded from a 45 year old man with infarctions involving bilaterally the body of the caudate nucleus, with a greater extent on the left side. The patient exhibited a pattern of eye movement abnormalities in which a delay dependent decrease of accuracy of memory guided saccades predomin...
متن کاملCaudate Nucleus and Insular Activation During a Pain Suppression Paradigm Comparing Thermal and Electrical Stimulation
Pain modulation is an integral function of the nervous system. It is needed to adapt to chronic stimuli. To gain insights into pain suppression mechanisms, two studies concerning the suppression of the feeling of pain with different stimulation modalities (heat vs. electrical stimuli) but using the same stimulation paradigms were compared: 15 subjects each had been stimulated on both hands unde...
