title: Direct projections from the subthalamic nucleus of Luys to the spinal cord in the Japanese monkey.
abstract: Injection of large amounts of a mixture of horseradish peroxidase and wheat germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase conjugate into the upper cervical segments of the spinal cord in the Japanese monkey (Macaca fuscata) led to the retrograde labeling of a small number of neuronal cell bodies within the rostral part of the subthalamic nucleus of Luys. Direct projection from the subthalamic nucleus to the spinal cord appeared to be much less prominent in the Japanese monkey than in the cat and rat.
