Functional significance of ventral descending tracts of the spinal cord in the cat
Acta Neurobiol Exp (Wars).
1974.
Abstract
Cats with an incomplete transection of the spinal cord at the Th10-12 level (various parts of the ventral and lateral funiculi intact) were examined 3-18 months after the operation. The walking, standing and righting reflexes were preserved in all the preparations with ventral funiculus spared. However, these reactions were altered in comparison with normal animals.
