High-resolution Multi-Element Radio Linked Interferometer Network 5-GHz observations of seven Seyfert galaxies, selected as the ones previously showing evidence of collimated ejection, have been compared with high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope data. A radio and optical/near-ultraviolet emission correlation is apparent in all the sources. The radio maps reveal rich structures in the entire sample. NGC 2639 and TXFS 2226-184 have multiple-knot parsec-scale extended structures, Mrk 1034NED02, Mrk 1210, NGC 4922NED02 and NGC 5506 reveal one-sided jets, while IC 1481 exhibits jet features. Interaction between these very small (mostly mas) sub-kpc jets with dense material gives rise to symptoms of a disrupted medium, signatures of which are present in all the sources.
