[Can the thalamic projections of medulla oblongata nucleus Z be reorganized following partial deafferentation of the ventral lateral thalamic nucleus?]. 2009

S A Badalian, and V A Sargsian, and Dzh S Sarkisian

Following partial deafferentation of ventral lateral thalamic nucleus by means of HRP retrograde labeling, possible plastic reorganization of projections of the brain stem relay Z nucleus was studied in cats. The partial deafferentation of ventral lateral thalamic nucleus was evoked by preliminary (3 months before) destroying of contralateral cerebellar nucleus interpositus or Deiters' lateral vestibular nucleus. The local intensive labeling of neurons in the Z nucleus and a little group of neurons in the cellular group x of the vestibular complex projecting to ventral lateral thalamic nucleus and overlapping with those projecting from cerebellum was observed. It was shown that, following destruction of the cerebellar nucleus interpositus or Deiters' nucleus, the ipsilateral projections in the nucleus monosynaptic link are not forming. The absence of Z nucleus-ventral lateral thalamic nucleus projections reorganization similar to the formation ofipsilateral projections possibly depends on its belonging to the somatosensory relay nucleus which provides switching and transmission of specific proprioceptuve modality.

D008526 Medulla Oblongata The lower portion of the BRAIN STEM. It is inferior to the PONS and anterior to the CEREBELLUM. Medulla oblongata serves as a relay station between the brain and the spinal cord, and contains centers for regulating respiratory, vasomotor, cardiac, and reflex activities.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
