Projections from the dorsal and ventral cochlear nuclei to the medial geniculate body
Direct projections from the cochlear nucleus (CN) to the medial geniculate body (MG) mediate a high-speed transfer of acoustic information to the auditory thalamus. Anderson etal. (2006) used anterograde tracers to label the projection from the dorsal CN (DCN) to the MG in guinea pigs. We examined this pathway with retrograde tracers. The results confirm a pathway from the DCN, originating prim...

Local circuit interactions between the dorsal and ventral divisions of the cochlear nucleus are known to influence the evoked responses of the resident neurons to sound. In the present study, we examined the projections of neurons in the ventral cochlear nucleus to the dorsal cochlear nucleus by using retrograde transport of biotinylated dextran amine injected into restricted but different regi...
متن کاملCholinergic and Non-Cholinergic Projections from the Pedunculopontine and Laterodorsal Tegmental Nuclei to the Medial Geniculate Body in Guinea Pigs
The midbrain tegmentum is the source of cholinergic innervation of the thalamus and has been associated with arousal and control of the sleep/wake cycle. In general, the innervation arises bilaterally from the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus (PPT) and the laterodorsal tegmental nucleus (LDT). While this pattern has been observed for many thalamic nuclei, a projection from the LDT to the medi...
متن کاملDifferential telencephalic projections of the medial and ventral divisions of the medial geniculate body of the rat.
The medial geniculate body of mammals is not a homogeneous structure, and has thus been subdivided into a varying number of component nuclei. On the basis of cytoarchitectonics and Golgi analysis, Cajal subdivided the medial geniculate body of a number of mammals into ventral, medial, and dorsal divisions a and, more recently, Morest has confirmed and extended these observations 5. Morest repor...
متن کاملAnatomic, intrinsic, and synaptic properties of dorsal and ventral division neurons in rat medial geniculate body.
Anatomic, intrinsic, and synaptic properties of dorsal and ventral division neurons in rat medial geniculate body. Presently little is known about what basic synaptic and cellular mechanisms are employed by thalamocortical neurons in the two main divisions of the auditory thalamus to elicit their distinct responses to sound. Using intracellular recording and labeling methods, we characterized a...
