Vestibulothalamic projections were studied in the monkey (macaca mulatta) by injecting anerograde trace substances (radioactive leucine and proline) into the vestibular nuclear complex. Terminal labelling was found bilaterally mainly in the nucleus ventroposterior lateralis pars oralis (VPLo) and to a lesser extent in the nucleus ventroposterior inferior (VPI) and nucleus ventralis lateralis pars caudalis (VLc). The labelling was sparse, and scattered over wide areas. The vestibular origin of this projection was confirmed by injecting retrograde tracer substances (horseradish peroxidase and 125I wheat germ agglutinin) into VPLo. In the autoradiographic study no labelling was found in the posterior group.
通过将顺行示踪物质（放射性亮氨酸和脯氨酸）注入前庭神经核复合体，对猕猴（恒河猴）的前庭丘脑投射进行了研究。双侧终末标记主要见于腹后外侧核嘴侧部（VPLo），在腹后下核（VPI）和外侧腹核尾侧部（VLc）的标记较少。标记稀疏，散布于广泛区域。通过将逆行示踪物质（辣根过氧化物酶和125I小麦胚凝集素）注入VPLo，证实了该投射的前庭起源。在放射自显影研究中，在后组中未发现标记。
