Responses to visual stimuli of single cortical neurons in arcuate and prearcuate regions were studied in 6 immobilized macaque monkeys. Neurons responding to visual stimuli were found in both regions, some of them responded to conventional light stimuli, others required more complex visual stimulation. The former were found posteriorly in the arcuate region, the latter anterioly and in the prearcuate region. According to their functional properties the latter neurons were subdivided into: (a) neurons responding to stimuli near the eyes; (b) neurons triggered by complex visual stimuli; (c) neurons inhibited by visual stimuli.
在6只麻醉的猕猴中，研究了弓形区和弓前区单个皮层神经元对视觉刺激的反应。在这两个区域均发现了对视觉刺激有反应的神经元，其中一些对传统光刺激有反应，另一些则需要更复杂的视觉刺激。前者位于弓形区后部，后者位于弓形区前部和弓前区。根据其功能特性，后一类神经元可细分为：(a) 对眼部附近刺激有反应的神经元；(b) 由复杂视觉刺激触发的神经元；(c) 受视觉刺激抑制的神经元。
