It can be claimed that, although pontine reticular formation (RF) neurons are related to the ocular quick movements, only some units are responsible for the nystagmic rhythm. It can also be concluded that reticular units are involved in three different types of ocular nystagmus. Thus, according to experiments in guinea pigs pontine RF seems to be related not only to horizontal nystagmus, as claimed up to now, but also to vertical nystagmus.

Abstract
It can be claimed that, although pontine reticular formation (RF) neurons are related to the ocular quick movements, only some units are responsible for the nystagmic rhythm. It can also be concluded that reticular units are involved in three different types of ocular nystagmus. Thus, according to experiments in guinea pigs pontine RF seems to be related not only to horizontal nystagmus, as claimed up to now, but also to vertical nystagmus.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
