[Effect of interaural differences in acoustic stimulation on the neuronal activity of the red nucleus in the cat].
In anesthetized and immobilized cats, dichotic stimulation revealed a high sensitivity of red nucleus (RN) neurons to interaural difference in time (83% of neurons) and intensity (82% of neurons) of stimulation. Percentage of the NR neurons (71%) altering their their activity in response to signals simulating movements of the sound source in horizontal plane, was higher than in centers of the auditory system. Utilization of the acoustic information by the NR neurons for organization of movement elements of the localization behaviour, is discussed.
