[The effect of the stimulation of sections of the pons that inhibit movement on the neuronal activity of the medial medulla oblongata].
Out of 249 units of the medial medullary area, 40 were ineffective, 25 fired antidromically, 48--orthodromically, 72 were inhibited and 64 developed a tonic firing pattern during stimulation of inhibitory pontine areas. The data obtained revealed that somatosensory neurons were mostly inhibited whereas reticulospinal neurons suppressed the activity of the hindlimb motoneurons.
