A Physiological Neural Controller of a Muscle Fiber Oculomotor Plant in Horizontal Monkey Saccades [PDF]
A neural network model of biophysical neurons in the midbrain is presented to drive a muscle fiber oculomotor plant during horizontal monkey saccades. Neural circuitry, including omnipause neuron, premotor excitatory and inhibitory burst neurons, long lead burst neuron, tonic neuron, interneuron, abducens nucleus, and oculomotor nucleus, is developed ...

Delineation of motoneuron subgroups supplying individual eye muscles in the human oculomotor nucleus [PDF]
The oculomotor nucleus (nIII) contains the motoneurons of medial, inferior and superior recti (MR, IR, SR), inferior oblique (IO) and levator palpebrae (LP) muscles. The delineation of motoneuron subgroups for each muscle is well-known in monkey, but not

Expanding repertoire in the oculomotor periphery: selective compartmental function in rectus extraocular muscles [PDF]
Since connective tissue pulleys implement Listing's law by systematically changing rectus extraocular muscle (EOM) pulling directions, non‐Listing's law gaze dependence of the vestibulo‐ocular reflex is currently inexplicable. Differential activation of compartments within rectus EOMs may endow the ocular motor system with more behavioral diversity ...

Clinico-anatomical Analysis of the Fibers to the Inferior Rectus Muscle in the Oculomotor Fascicles
We report two cases of isolated unilateral pupil-sparing partial fascicular oculomotor paresis. Patient 1 was a 72-year-old man who developed left-sided palsy of the inferior rectus muscle (IR), medial rectus muscle (MR), superior rectus muscle (SR), inferior oblique muscle (IO), and levator palpebrae superioris (LP) due to infarction of the left ...

SOMATOTOPIC ORGANIZATION OF THE CRANIAL NERVE NUCLEI INVOLVED IN EYE MOVEMENTS: III, IV, VI. [PDF]
The oculomotor nucleus is divided into: 1. somatic medial column innervating the superior rectus muscle and somatic lateral column, further subdivided into a lateral column innervating the inferior rectus, inferior oblique and medial rectus muscles; 2 ...

Medial transposition of a split lateral rectus muscle for complete oculomotor nerve palsy [PDF]
To evaluate the effect on ocular alignment of Y splitting the lateral rectus muscle and then reattaching the 2 ends near the medial rectus muscle insertion in patients with complete oculomotor nerve palsy.All eyes with oculomotor nerve palsy treated between May 2008 and February 2010 with Y splitting and transposition of the lateral rectus muscle to ...

Muscle function is dependent on innervation by the correct motor nerves. Motor nerves are composed of motor axons which extend through peripheral tissues as a compact bundle, then diverge to create terminal nerve branches to specific muscle targets. As motor nerves approach their targets, they undergo a transition where the fasciculated nerve halts ...
