[Features of responses of the neurons of the caudate nucleus to various localizations of a photic stimulus in the visual field of the alert cat].
The responses of caudate neurons to restricted light stimuli differently located in the visual field were studied during natural fixation of the gaze on the visual target in awake cats. 71% of visually responsive neurons were sensitive to changing of stimulus location. It indicates that some neurons (17%) had restricted receptive fields in the centre of the gaze, other neurons (17%) had decreasing sensitivity to stimuli removed from the centre of the field and 37% of responsive neurons received information of different quality from different parts of the visual field. It is suggested that caudate nucleus neurons participate in the analysis of visual sensory information.
