| Abstract | Single unit extracellular recordings were obtained from cat lumbar spinal cord dorsal horn neurons activated by cutaneous inputs. The effect of electrical conditioning stimuli applied to the red nucleus (RN) was predominantly that of inhibition although in some cases excitation was seen. All the neurons that projected to the lateral cervical nucleus were inhibited; none of these were excited. These findings suggest that the RN may exert a dynamic modulatory action on the transmission of cutaneous information during the execution of a motor program. |
