Subthalamic projection to nucleus tegmenti pedunculopontinus in the rat. 1981

A Jackson, and A R Crossman

A projection from the subthalamic nucleus to the nucleus tegmenti pedunculopontinus has been demonstrated in the rat using retrograde and anterograde transport of horseradish peroxidase. Small, well-localized injections of peroxidase in nucleus pedunculopontinus gave rise to retrogradely labelled cell bodies in the subthalamic nucleus. Injections of peroxidase restricted to the subthalamic nucleus gave terminal labelling in nucleus pedunculopontinus.

D006735 Horseradish Peroxidase An enzyme isolated from horseradish which is able to act as an antigen. It is frequently used as a histochemical tracer for light and electron microscopy. Its antigenicity has permitted its use as a combined antigen and marker in experimental immunology.

D013681 Tegmentum Mesencephali Portion of midbrain situated under the dorsal TECTUM MESENCEPHALI. The two ventrolateral cylindrical masses or peduncles are large nerve fiber bundles providing a tract of passage between the FOREBRAIN with the HINDBRAIN. Ventral MIDBRAIN also contains three colorful structures: the GRAY MATTER (PERIAQUEDUCTAL GRAY), the black substance (SUBSTANTIA NIGRA), and the RED NUCLEUS.
