ABSTRACT
Injections of wheat germ agglutinin-HRP into the medullary reticular formation (MRf) or the substantia nigra reticulata (SNr) revealed the presence of reciprocating fiber connections between the two areas. Large injections in the MRf demonstrated the existence of labeled neurons in the lateral portions of the SNr. Isolated injections into the parvocellular nuclei of the MRf resulted in the presence of terminal fields in the SNr particularly its lateral portions. Injections in the SNr resulted in the presence of labeled cells in the parvocellular nuclei. The significance of these findings is discussed in terms of oro-facial dyskinesias.
