Chronic changes in inputs to dorsal Y neurons accompany VOR motor learning.
Gain changes in the vestibuloocular reflex (VOR) during visual-vestibular mismatch stimulation serve as a model system for motor learning. The cerebellar flocculus and its target neurons in the brain stem (FTN) are candidates for the storage of these novel VOR gains. We have recently studied the changes in vertical flocculus Purkinje cells after chronic VOR motor learning. Recently we recorded ...
متن کاملNeuronal substrates of motor learning in the velocity storage generated during optokinetic stimulation in the squirrel monkey.
Chronic motor learning in the vestibuloocular reflex (VOR) results in changes in the gain of this reflex and in other eye movements intimately associated with VOR behavior, e.g., the velocity storage generated by optokinetic stimulation (OKN velocity storage). The aim of the present study was to identify the plastic sites responsible for the change in OKN velocity storage after chronic VOR moto...
متن کاملNeural correlates of motor learning in the vestibulo-ocular reflex: dynamic regulation of multimodal integration in the macaque vestibular system.
Motor learning is required for the reacquisition of skills that have been compromised as a result of brain lesion or disease, as well as for the acquisition of new skills. Behaviors with well characterized anatomy and physiology are required to yield significant insight into changes that occur in the brain during motor learning. The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) is well suited to establish conn...
متن کاملNeural substrate of modified and unmodified pathways for learning in monkey vestibuloocular reflex.
To understand how the brain learns, we need to identify the full neural circuit for a behavior; characterize how neural responses in the circuit change during behavioral learning; and understand the nature, location, and control of the cellular changes that are responsible for learning. This goal seems attainable for the vestibuloocular reflex (VOR), where the neural circuit basis for learning ...
متن کاملSomatovisceral interactions in the rat dorsal column nuclei
Recent studies have revealed that noxious visceral inputs travel in the dorsal column pathway, and interactions between colorectal noxious and tactile inputs occur in the ventrobasal thalamus. This investigation was to test whether the somatovisceral interactions also take place in the dorsal column nuclei (DCN). Forty-five single DCN neurons of anesthetized rats responsive to colorectal disten...
