Population response characteristics of neurons in anterior motorsensory cerebral cortex (field 6) of the domestic cat (original) (raw)

Investigating the population response characteristics of neurons in anterior motorsensory cortex (field 6) of domestic cats reveals that the majority of categorized m neurons are responsive to electrical stimulation of the paws, displaying lower discharge probabilities and extended initial spike latencies compared to neighboring cytoarchitectonic fields. The study suggests a continuum of neuron subsets across different fields, with particular emphasis on the distinct response properties within field 6 compared to fields 4 and 3b.
