[Electrophysiological analysis of facial reflex in monkeys: trigemino-naso-labial reflex].

Electrical stimulation of the awake monkey's supra orbital nerve, elicits two successive reflex discharge in both naso-labialis muscles (NL). The responses have a similar high threshold. Similar responses are also elicited on electrical stimulation of the facial skin, whereas flash, click or tapping on the muscle belly are ineffective. These responses bear some resemblances to those obtained in orbicularis oculi muscles ; but the higher threshold and the different organization of the NL responses would suggest that such reflexes may serve a different function from that of the blink reflex.
