The projections of the trigeminal nerve in the pontine reticular formation of the cat have been investigated by recording unit activity, after physiological stimulation of the face, in 30 "encéphales isolés" preparations. No somatotopical arrangement was found but a high degree of spatial convergence onto pontine reticular units exists and a certain degree of functional organization was observed.

Of the three regions examined, the hippocampus had the lowest threshold for nicotine effects. Following nicotine injection, regularization of the EEG in all regions was accompanied by increased unit excitability, and during seizures the unit activity was depressed. Modification of neocortical and reticular unit activity without any concomitant EEG changes in these regions was occasionally recorded after nicotine injection. Further experiments indicated that these changes of unit activity were due to alterations in hippocampal excitability elicited by the drug. Electrical stimulation of the hippocampus which evoked regularization and seizure discharges similarly modified the reticular unit excitability, but no conclusive results could be obtained regarding the hippocampal influence on neocortical units.
