[Synaptic responses of neurons of the lateral medullary reticular formation to stimulation of the locomotor strip in the cat].

Intracellular recording of neuronal responses in the lateral medullar reticular formation to stimulation of locomotor points located rostrally and caudally of the obex was made in mesencephalic uncurarized cats. Of 114 neurons with synaptic responses to the rostral point stimulation by current up to 30 microA 40 neurons were excited antidromically from the caudal point.
