A prominent target of the basal ganglia is the superior colliculus (SC) which controls gaze orientation (saccadic eye movement in primates) to an important object. This ‘object choice’ is crucial for choosing an action on the object. SC is innervated by the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) which is controlled mainly by the caudate nucleus (CD). This CD-SNr-SC circuit is sensitive to the values of individual objects and facilitates saccades to good objects. The object values are processed differently in two parallel circuits: flexibly by the caudate head (CDh) and stably by the caudate tail (CDt). To choose good objects, we need to reject bad objects. In fact, these contrasting functions are accomplished by the circuit originating from CDt: the direct pathway focuses on good objects and facilitates saccades to them; the indirect pathway focuses on bad objects and suppresses saccades to them. Inactivation of CDt deteriorated the object choice, because saccades to bad objects was no longer suppressed. This suggests that the indirect pathway is important for object choice. However, the direct and indirect pathways for ‘object choice’, which aim at the same action (i.e., saccade), may not work for ‘action choice’. One possibility is that circuits controlling different actions are connected through the indirect pathway. Additional connections of the indirect pathway with brain areas outside the basal ganglia may also provide a wider range of behavioral choice. In conclusion, basal ganglia circuits are composed of the basic direct/indirect pathways and additional connections, and thus have acquired multiple functions. Parallel circuits from the caudate nucleus to the superior colliculus choose objects by their values, but selectively: anterior circuit using flexible values, posterior circuit using stable values.In the posterior circuit, the object choice is done by saccading to good objects (by direct pathway) and saccading a way from bad objects (by indirect pathway). In contrast, action choice may require interactions among multiple basal ganglia circuits, especially through indirect pathways, according to our hypothesis.
