In one series of experiments, vestibular neurons that could be activated antidromically by stimulation of the contralateral medial reticular formation were studied with extracellular recording in cats under pentobarbital anesthesia. These neurons were found in all of the four main vestibular nuclei, but were less prevalent in dorsal Deiters' nucleus and in the central region of the superior vestibular nucleus than elsewhere. Regions of the pontine and medullary reticular formation from which neurons in different vestibular nuclei were activated corresponded to the pattern of vestibuloreticular projections described by neuroanatomists. 2. Latencies of antidromic responses to stimulation of the contralateral reticular formation ranged from 0.6 to over 3 ms, indicating a relatively slow transfer of activity from vestibular nuclei to reticular formation.
