Projections of the vestibular and cerebellar nuclei in Rana pipiens.

The efferent projections and cytoarchitecture of the vestibulocerebellar region were examined to determine the nuclear boundaries and potential homologies. The anterior portion of the vestibular complex projects to the ipsilateral oculomotor and trochlear nuclei and is the major source of commissural fibers. Neurons in the rostromedial portions of the complex project to the contralateral trochlear nucleus. Large neurons in the ventrolateral portion of the complex give rise to a bilateral vestibulospinal pathway. Medium-sized neurons in the neuropil and small neurons in the central gray giving rise to bilateral projections to the spinal cord and oculomotor nuclei as well as commissural and ipsilateral cerebellar efferents. Projections from the nucleus of the cerebellum reach the contralateral spinal cord and cerebellar nucleus and there is also a bilateral projection to the ventral rhombencephalic and mesencephalic basal plates. The medial portion of the nucleus gives rise to commissural, ipsilateral mesencephalic and contralateral spinal projections. The lateral portion of the nucleus projects to the contralateral ventral mesencephalon. On the whole, the results of this investigation substantiate the division of the anuran vestibular complex in anurans into nuclei which may be homologous to the superior nucleus and nucleus of Deiters in mammals. The case for distinct descending and medial nuclei is less compelling. Further, it appears possible to divide the nucleus of the cerebellum into medial and lateral components whose connectivity is similar to that of reptiles and to a lesser extent mammals.
