title: Cat efferent vestibular system: weak suppression of primary afferent activity.
abstract: Efferent vestibular neurons identified electrophysiologically in the brain stem do not receive a short latency synaptic input from the ipsilateral labyrinth. Central electric stimulation of these neurons influenced the resting discharge of only 8% of the primary afferent vestibular neurons. Caloric or electric stimulation of the vestibular input was ineffective in changing the spontaneous activity of contralateral primary afferent vestibular neurons.
