Centrifugal fibers to the rat retina from the medial pretectal area and the periaqueductal grey matter.

Abstract:

:Intraocular injections of several different retrograde tracers were made in albino rats. Retrogradely filled neurons were observed in two locations: the medial pretectal area and the contralateral periaqueductal grey matter, indicating that the pretectum and the mesencephalon are sources of centrifugal innervation to the rat retina.
