Abstract：
:In cats, anaesthetized with chloralose and paralysed, the responses of units in the right lateral thalamus were recorded while the extrinsic ocular muscles (EOM) of the right eye were stretched in the dark. Phasic responses were found in all layers of the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (LGNd) and in the perigeniculate nucleus (PGN). A given unit usually responded to stretch of more than one EOM and thus to more than one direction of rotation of the eye in the orbit. LGNd. Of a sample of 76 units in LGNd, 55 (72%) gave visula but no muscle responses and 21 (28%) responded to EOM stretch. In all, 40 units with EOM responses were examined and 25 of the 27 tested (93%) also had visual responses. Of the 40 units, 32 could be allocated to layers, thus; layer A, 8 (25%); layer A1, 20 (63%); layer B, 3 (9%); central interlaminar nucleus, 1 (3%). It is interesting that most of the EOM responses were found in layer A1 which recieves the excitatory visual input from the eye whose EOM were stretched. Muscle responsive units occurred with ON- and OFF-centre visual responses of sustained and transient types. PGN. In PGN, 21 units gave EOM responses and most of them were also excited by visual input. The conclusion is that the LGNd and PGN receive an extraretinal proprioceptive signal which should be present during at least large saccadic eye movements. The anatomical pathways which may be involved and the significance of the signal are discussed briefly.
