摘要
本实验选用150~260g的雄性Sprague-Dawley大鼠13只,把WGA-HRP/HRP混合水溶液加压注入一侧终纹床核群前外侧区的卵圆核区域,冰冻切片,TMB法呈色后,在中枢看到顺行标记终末最密集的部位是:下丘脑后部外侧区、中央杏仁核、中脑中央灰质、臂旁核、三叉神经中脑核、蓝斑;比较多的部位是视前区、下丘脑室周区、弓状核、丘脑中线核群、内侧纽核、腹侧背盖核、脚桥背盖核、中脑网状结构、中缝背核以及迷走神经复合体;在线形中缝核、中央上核、腹侧背盖区、黑质,以及延髓中介核,也看到少量标记终末。本工作对卵圆核的传出纤维联系,进行了较全面的观察。
Ju and Swanson first named the dorsal part of the anterolateral area of the bed nuclei of the stria terminalis (BST) as oval nucleus (Ov), and found that it was a homogeneous structure rich in neuropeptide-containing neurons and terminals. However, no systemic study has been made about the connections of the Ov.The present experiments were designed to examine the efferent projections of the Ov in the rat. Wheat germ agglutinin conjugated horseradish peroxidase(WGA-HRP) was used as a tracer.Injection of WGA-HRP into the Ov and its adjacent areas resulted in dense anterograde labelling in the posterior part of the lateral hypothalamic area, central nucleus of the amygdala, ventral part of the midbrain central gray, ventral tegmental nucleus, parabrachial nuclei, mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus and locus coeruleus; moderate labelling in the preoptic area, periventricular area of the hypothalamus, arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus, midline nuclei of the thalamus, medial habenular nucleus, pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus, midbrain reticular formation, dorsal raphe nucleus and the dorsal vagal complex; sparse labelling in the caudal linier nucleus, median raphe nucleus, ventral tegmental area, substantia nigra and intercalated nucleus of medulla oblongata. The results suggest that the Ov may be involved in multiple physiological functions.
