Nonphosphorylated neurofilament protein is expressed by scattered neurons in the human vestibular brainstem
Abstract
Vestibular information is critical for the maintenance of balance and posture and for the control of eye movements. The eighth nerve carries vestibular information to four brainstem nuclei called the vestibular nuclear complex (VNC); these nuclei relay vestibular signals to several additional brainstem nuclei. The structure, connections, effects of lesions and neuronal response properties of the vestibular brainstem have been studied in many …
