The organization of noradrenergic pathways from the brainstem to the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei in the rat

TL;DR: The autoradiographic material, and additional double-labeling experiments, were used to identify and to characterize projections that interconnect the A1, A2 and A6 regions, as well as possible projections from these cell groups to the spinal cord.

Brain Stem Control of Swallowing: Neuronal Network and Cellular Mechanisms

André Jean
TL;DR: The neuronal circuitry, the cellular properties of neurons, and the neurotransmitters possibly involved, as well as the peripheral and central inputs which shape the output of the network appropriately so that the swallowing movements correspond to the bolus to be swallowed are analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Subnuclear organization of the efferent connections of the parabrachial nucleus in the rat.

TL;DR: The subnuclear organization of PB is demonstrated, and this with the origins of its efferent connections, and recent immunohistochemical observations suggest that the subnuclear organizations of PB afferent and efferent connection may reflect, at least in part, their biochemical specificity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Connections of the parabrachial nucleus with the nucleus of the solitary tract and the medullary reticular formation in the rat.

TL;DR: Different functional regions of the NTS/area postrema complex and medullary reticular formation were found to innervate largely nonoverlapping zones in the PB.
Journal ArticleDOI

The organization of projections from the cortex, amygdala, and hypothalamus to the nucleus of the solitary tract in rat.

TL;DR: The prefrontal cortical areas projecting to the NTS apparently overlap to a large degree with those cortical areas receiving mediodorsal thalamic and dopaminergic input, and the retrogradely labeled cortical cells were situated in deep layers of the rat prefrontal cortex.

The autoradiographic demonstration of axonal connections in the central nervous system.

TL;DR: There are several reasons for thinking that this method may offer a number of advantages over other currently available techniques, and it should be possible to do this by locally injecting radioactively labeled precursors of proteins or other macromolecules into the brain or spinal cord.
Journal ArticleDOI

Taste pathways to hypothalamus and amygdala

TL;DR: The electrophysiological data demonstrate that pontine gustatory units can be antidromically activated by electrodes located in or near the central nucleus of the amygdala.

Ascending central gustatory pathways.

TL;DR: The central gustatory pathways of the albino rat have been traced using a combined electrophysiological‐neuroanatomical technique.
