Cytoarchitecture of pneumotaxic integration of respiratory and nonrespiratory information in the rat.
The "pneumotaxic center" in the Kölliker-Fuse and medial parabrachial nuclei of dorsolateral pons (dl-pons) plays an important role in respiratory phase switching, modulation of respiratory reflex, and rhythmogenesis. Recent electrophysiological and neural tracing data implicate additional pneumotaxic nuclei in (and a broader role for) the dl-pons in integrating respiratory and nonrespiratory i...
متن کاملتاثیر تجویز بیکوکولین پس از القای درد بر تعداد نورونهای چندشکلی ناحیه پارابراکیال مغز موشهای صحرایی
Background and Aim: A lot of biological investigations are aimed to find pain decreasing or relieving substances that appear in various diseases. Parabrachial nucleus plays an important role in cognitive and emotional aspects of pain. The present study was designed to evaluate the inhibitory effect of bicuculine- as a GABA A receptor antagonist- on the number of multiform neurons in Parabrachi...
متن کاملEffect of Reversible Inactivation of the Kolliker Fuse Nucleus on Basal Blood Pressure and Heart Rate in Anesthetized Rat
Introduction: Several supra spinal areas such as rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) area are involved in basic cardiovascular regulation. The Kolliker— Fuse nucleus (KF) is located in pons and is heavily connected with RVLM. The cardiovascular effect of KF nucleus has been shown and it is suggested that KF is involved in sympathetic vasomotor tone and basic cardiovascular regulation. Therefor...
متن کاملThe Role of Parabrachial GABAA Receptors in Pain Modulation in Rats
Background & Objective: The parabrachial nucleus is a critical link in the transmission of short latency nociceptive information to midbrain neurons. GABA(A) receptors have bidirectional roles in controlling nociception and are abundant in the parabrachial region . We examined the effects of bilateral intra parabrachial microinjection of different doses of the GABA(A) receptor agonist, muscimo...
متن کاملNeuropeptide S- and Neuropeptide S receptor-expressing neuron populations in the human pons
Neuropeptide S (NPS) is a regulatory peptide with potent pharmacological effects. In rodents, NPS is expressed in a few pontine cell clusters. Its receptor (NPSR1) is, however, widely distributed in the brain. The anxiolytic and arousal-promoting effects of NPS make the NPS-NPSR1 system an interesting potential drug target in mood-related disorders. However, so far possible disease-related mech...
متن کاملBrainstem connections of the rat ventral respiratory subgroups: afferent projections.
Propriobulbar neurons having axonal projections to the Ventral Respiratory Group (VRG) were retrogradely labeled after discrete injections of Fast blue into one of the three physiologically identified subdivisions (Bötzinger Complex, rostral inspiratory and caudal expiratory regions). Neurons that project to these regions were found throughout the rostrocaudal extent of the medulla and the pons...
