Abstract
The retrograde cellular changes occurring in the paramedian reticular nucleus of the medulla oblongata following localized cerebellar lesions were examined in young cats, aged 6-18 days. The animals were sacrificed 4-10 days after operation. All 3 subdivisions of this circumscribed part of the reticular formation project on to the anterior lobe, the pyramis and uvula, and probably on to the nucleus fastigii. On the basis of available anatomical and physiological data the assumption is ventured that the nucleus is functionally related to the inhibitory action of the cerebellum.Keywords
