1. The synaptic input to ascending tract cells with axons in the dorsal columns was investigated using intracellular recording. 2. E.p.s.p.s evoked by stimulation of the lateral funiculus were analysed to test for the possibility of collateral connexions between spino-cervical tract cells and dorsal column cells. Three groups of fibres were found to contribute to such e.p.s.p.s: fibres which terminated or originated between spinal segments C3-4 and C1, or Th9 and C3-4 and cortico-spinal tract fibres. The latencies and thresholds of e.p.s.p.s evoked by stimulation of the first group of fibres were compatible with their origin via axon collaterals of spino-cervical tract cells. The occurrence of these e.p.s.p.s in dorsal column cells which were disynaptically excited from cutaneous afferents further corroborated this possibility. 3. E.P.S.P.S of specifically cervical origin were also found in some other neurones in the dorsal horn, probably segmental interneurones, but were absent in spinocervical tract cells. 4. Convergence of group I muscle afferents (possibly both group Ia and group Ib) and cutaneous afferents was found in about 50% of the dorsal column cells. The shortest latency e.p.s.p.s from cutaneous and group I afferents were evoked with segmental delays indicating monosynaptic and disynaptic coupling. 5. I.p.s.p.s were evoked from cutaneous and group I muscle afferents in either the same or different nerves as those from which the e.p.s.p.s were elicited. Excitatory potentials were, however, dominating.
