CONNECTION BETWEEN SPINAL CORD DORSAL HORN NEURONS AND THE SOLITARY TRACT NUCLEUS OF RAT——A PHYSIOLOGICAL STUDY

The solitary tract nucleus (STN) is a primary visceral sensory nucleus to which neuroanatomists and neurophysiologists have devoted much attention for years. Little is known, however, to the projection connection between the STN and spinal cord. Loewy morphologically described the descending projection from STN to the spinal cord in the
