A Medullary Pressor Region
Electrical stimulation of fibers of passage through the fastigial nucleus increases arterial pressure. To identify nuclei that may project through the pressor region of the fastigial nucleus, we injected the retrograde tracer fast blue unilaterally at confirmed pressor sites in the nucleus. In seven rats, we found dense fluorescent labeling bilaterally in the external cuneate, lateral reticular...
متن کاملA slow excitatory postsynaptic potential mediated by 5-HT2 receptors in nucleus prepositus hypoglossi.
Intracellular recordings were made from neurons of the nucleus prepositus hypoglossi in slices of guinea pig medulla. 5-HT (serotonin) caused a hyperpolarization followed by a late depolarization. The hyperpolarization was mediated by 5-HT1A receptor activation and could be selectively blocked by pindobind-5HT1A (PBD). 5-HT then caused a depolarization only. A selective 5-HT2 agonist, (+)-1-(2,...
متن کاملVestibular imbalance associated with a lesion in the nucleus prepositus hypoglossi area.
BACKGROUND The nucleus prepositus hypoglossi (NPH) is known to be a neural integrator of horizontal eye movements. Although the role of the human NPH is not well known, it may also function in postural balance, in view of its anatomic connections with the vestibular nuclei and vestibulocerebellum and of lesion studies in experimental animals. OBJECTIVE To show that the human NPH contributes t...
متن کاملEffects of nucleus prepositus hypoglossi lesions on visual climbing fiber activity in the rabbit flocculus.
The caudal dorsal cap (dc) of the inferior olive is involved in the control of horizontal compensatory eye movements. It provides those climbing fibers to the vestibulocerebellum that modulate optimally to optokinetic stimulation about the vertical axis. This modulation is mediated at least in part via an excitatory input to the caudal dc from the pretectal nucleus of the optic tract and the do...
متن کاملDistribution of efferent neurons projecting to the tectum and cerebellum in the rat prepositus hypoglossi nucleus.
Distributions of efferent neurons projecting to the superior colliculus (SC), the pretectum, and the cerebellar cortex were studied in the rat prepositus hypoglossi nucleus (PRH) by retrograde labeling with wheat germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase (WGA-HRP). After injection of the tracer into the unilateral SC, small- and medium-sized neurons were labeled throughout the entire rostrocaudal ...
