硝普钠造成狗低血压时脑内注射东莨菪碱对电针升压作用的影响

于14条清醒狗静脉内匀速注射硝普钠造成急性实验性低血压时(动脉收缩压从131±6mmHg 降至94±4mmHg),在中脑中央灰质、下丘脑腹内侧核区、中脑中缝核旁网状结构微量注射东莨菪碱20μg(溶于2μl生理盐水),可以阻断电针的升压作用。如果在低血压清醒狗中于上述中枢部位微量注射乙酰胆碱(ACh)200μg(溶于2μl生理盐水),可引起血压明显回升(收缩压从94±4mmHg 升到110±6mmHg,P<0.01),持续约10min。实验结果表明:用舒血管药物造成实验性低血压时,电针引起的升压作用与中脑中央灰质、下丘脑腹内侧核区、中脑中缝核旁网状结构等部位的胆碱能 M 受体的激活有关。     

β-内啡肽在雌激素负反馈调节中的作用机理

本文在大鼠的整体实验中,测定了下丘脑和中脑中央灰质的β-内啡肽(β-endorphin,β-EP)和促黄体素释放激素(luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone,LHRH)含量,以研究在雌激素负反馈调节中β-EP和LHRH释放之间的关系。结果表明,体内雌激素水平升高而产生负反馈调节时,下丘脑和中脑中央灰质的β-EP含量明显升高,而下丘脑LHRH的释放受到明显的抑制;纳洛酮阻断β-EP的作用后,下丘脑LHRH释放增加。结果提示,下丘脑和中脑中央灰质β-EP可能同时参与了雌激素对下丘脑LHRH释放的负反馈调节作用。     

防御警觉反应中心血管变化的机制与意义

动物发生防御警觉反应时,心血管活动有一系列特征性变化。与此有关的中枢结构有下丘脑穹窿周围区,中脑中央灰质及延髓腹侧的巨细胞旁外侧核等。中枢内还有与防御反应相拮抗的交感抑制系统。这两系统的动态平衡,对维持交感紧张性与血压水平有重要作用。过强而持久的防御反应可能是引起某些类型高血压、心律失常等心血管疾病的一个原因。     

延髓中线区在躯体传入冲动抑制刺激兔下丘脑诱发室性期前收缩中的作用

于兔延髓中线区闩部头端处微量注射5-HT 受体阻断剂肉桂硫胺(4μg溶于2μl中)可减弱躯体传入冲动对刺激下丘脑诱发的室性期前收缩(HVE)的抑制效应;微量注入阿片受体阻断剂纳洛酮(4μg溶于2μl中)则可完全消除此抑制效应。损毁延髓中线区后,中脑中央灰质微量注入5-HT 或吗啡均不再能抑制 HVE。上述现象提示,躯体传人冲动抑制 HVE 的效应依赖于延髓中线区内啡肽和5-HT 的活动,中脑中央灰质内5-HT 和内啡肽对 HVE 的抑制作用也可能主要是通过延髓中线区的活动而实现。文中还就躯体传入冲动抑制 HVE 的中枢机制进行了讨论。     

猫下丘脑腹内侧核与旁中央中脑区神经联系的电生理学观察

用电脉冲刺激戊巴比妥钠麻醉和三碘季铵酚麻痹的31只猫的下丘脑腹內侧核(HVM),记录旁中央中脑区的平均诱发电位(AEP)。HVM 刺激点46个,旁中央中脑区引导点1046个,其中阳性反应点103个,快波反应151个,大多数为“峰电位式”快波。用逐渐增强的电脉冲刺激 HVM 可得等级式和“全或无”式两类反应。用不同频率的双刺激(PST)测试了111个 AEP 的反应性,其中有38个能跟随500Hz 以上的 PST,27个能跟随200—499Hz 的PST,46个仅能跟随199Hz 以下的 PST。给予短串刺激时,得到跟随500Hz 以上及500Hz以下的两类反应。这些结果提示 HVM 与旁中央中脑区之间既有经突触的投射又有直接的纤维连接。据计算,这些直接纤维的传导速度约为0.29—4.1m/s,相当于细有髓鞘和无髓鞘两类纤维。另外还描述了可能属于中枢轴突的某些传导特性。反映直接纤维连接的 HVM 刺激点与中脑中央灰质反应点的位置关系提示两者之间可能具有背腹侧方向的对应关系。     

电刺激大壁虎中脑诱发相反方向脊柱侧弯的研究

深入探索大壁虎Gekko gecko中脑运动调控功能,通过对头部固定的大壁虎(n=10)中脑脑区采用不锈钢微电极施加电刺激,发现对中脑不同深度脑区的电刺激能诱发出脊柱侧弯、四肢动等运动反应.在实验过程中,一些刺激针道在中脑围脑室灰质诱发出脊柱同侧弯曲反应,而在中脑腹侧被盖诱发出脊柱对侧弯曲反应.通过对刺激脑区的组织学检验,确定了大壁虎中脑内控制相反方向脊柱侧弯运动核团分布的大致区域.     

北草蜥中脑视叶组织学结构观察

用光学显微镜对北草蜥(Takydromus septentrionalis)中脑视叶组织学结构进行了观察。视叶分为背侧的顶盖和腹侧的被盖,两者无明显界限。顶盖处灰质和白质交替排列。由表及里,可分为分子层、外灰质层、浅白质层、中灰质层、中白质层、深灰质层、深白质层和室管膜层。被盖处细胞层次不明显。在视叶的前部有横行的纤维将左右视叶联系起来。左右视叶室与中脑水管以及两视叶间的纵沟在视叶的中、后部相通。同时将北草蜥的中脑与其它低等脊椎动物进行了比较,推测北草蜥在进化上处于较低等地位。     

电刺激大鼠尾核头部镇痛的中枢效应——〔~3H〕-2脱氧葡萄糖放射自显影研究

本文利用[~3H]-2脱氧葡萄糖定量放射自显影方法,研究了电刺激大鼠尾核头部镇痛时中枢神经系统有关结构的葡萄糖代谢率变化。结果表明,痛刺激后,皮层躯体感觉Ⅰ,Ⅱ区、扣带回皮质、丘脑束旁核、丘脑中央中核、丘脑腹后核、尾核、外侧缰核、外侧隔核、中缝背核及中脑导水管周围灰质等结等的葡萄糖代谢率均明显升高(P<0.05)。电刺激大鼠尾核头部后,中缝大核及延髓旁巨细胞网状外侧核的葡萄糖代谢率显著升高,中脑导水管周围灰质和中缝背核的葡萄糖代谢率亦有升高趋势。电刺激大鼠尾核头部可部份降低痛刺激引起的有关结构葡萄糖代谢率升高(如皮层躯体感觉Ⅰ、Ⅱ区、扣带回皮质、丘脑束旁核、丘脑中央中核、丘脑腹后核、外侧隔核及外侧缰核等)。上述结果提示,电刺激大鼠尾核头部镇痛时抑制了与痛感觉有关的结构,同时激活了与镇痛有关的结构。中缝大核、中缝背核、中脑导水管周围灰质及延髓旁巨细胞网状外侧核等结构是实现尾核镇痛的重要环节。     

血管活性肠肽免疫阳性神经元在家鸽中脑和间脑中的分布

用免疫细胞化学技术研究了血管活性肠肽（ＶＩＰ）阳性神经元在家鸽（Ｃｏｌｕｍｂａｌｉｖｉａ）中脑和间脑核团的分布。实验结果表明,ＶＩＰ阳性神经元主要分布于如下核团：下丘侧核（ＬＨＹ）、蔡氏腹区（ＡＶＴ）、中央灰质（ＧＣｔ）、中脑深核腹部（ＭＰｖ）、中脑外侧核背部（ＭＬｄ）、脑桥脚盖致密体（ＴＰｃ）、丘脑间核（ＩＣｏ）、兰斑核（ＬｏＣ）、脑桥嘴部网状核（ＲＰＯ）、兰斑背部亚核（ＳＣｄ）、兰斑腹部亚核（ＳＣｖ）和脑桥尾部网状核巨细胞部（ＲＰｇｃ）。在这些核团中,除ＭＬｄ中的ＶＩＰ阳性神经元位于其背部外,其余核团中ＶＩＰ阳性神经元分布基本上是均匀的。     

Separate populations of neurons in the oculomotor nucleus project to the cerebellum and the abducent nucleus. A retrograde fluorescent double-labelling study in the cat

Retrograde transport of fluorescent substances was used in order to investigate possible branching of axons from neurons in the oculomotor nucleus in the cat. Rhodamine-B-isothiocyanate (RITC) was injected into the cerebellar hemisphere, while Fluoro-Gold was implanted into the abducent nucleus. Neurons single-labelled with either of the dyes were found in the oculomotor nucleus in all cases, but no double-labelled neurons were found. The labelled cells were smaller than motoneurons and located in partly overlapping areas along the dorsal border of the oculomotor nucleus, with the RITC labelled cerebellar projecting cells concentrated medially and the Fluoro-Gold labelled neurons projecting to the abducent nucleus concentrated laterally. The RITC labelled cells were found throughout the rostrocaudal extent of the nucleus, while the Fluoro-Gold labelled cells were mainly found caudally. The present findings demonstrate that oculomotor neurons projecting to the feline cerebellum and abducent nucleus represent separate cell populations.     

Afferent connections to the abducent nucleus in the cat.

The afferent connections to the abducent nucleus in the cat were studied by means of retrograde transport of WGA-HRP after implantations of the tracer in crystalline form. Retrogradely labelled cells were found bilaterally in the medial and descending vestibular nuclei, mainly in their ventral and medial portions, in the rostral part of the ipsilateral gigantocellular reticular nucleus, in the medial part of the contralateral caudal pontine reticular nucleus and bilaterally in the oculomotor nucleus, mainly in its dorsolateral division. Some labelled cells were also found bilaterally in the mesencephalic reticular formation, the periaqueductal grey and the nucleus of the trapezoid body.

Central connections of the olfactory bulb in the goldfish,Carassius auratus

Summary The central connections of the goldfish olfactory bulb were studied with the use of horseradish peroxidase methods. The olfactory bulb projects bilaterally to ventral and dorsolateral areas of the telencephalon; further targets include the nucleus praeopticus periventricularis and a caudal olfactory nucleus near the nucleus posterior tuberis in the diencephalon, bilaterally. The contralateral bulb and the anterior commissure also receive an input from the olfactory bulb. Contralateral projections cross in rostral and caudal portions of the anterior commissure and in the habenular commissure. Retrogradely labeled neurons are found in the contralateral bulb and in three nuclei in the telencephalon bilaterally; the neurons projecting to the olfactory bulb are far more numerous on the ipsilateral side than in the contralateral hemisphere. Afferents to the olfactory bulb are found to run almost entirely through the lateral part of the medial olfactory tract, while the bulb efferents are mediated by the medial part of the medial olfactory tract and the lateral olfactory tract. Selective tracing of olfactory sub-tracts reveals different pathways and targets of the three major tract components. Reciprocal connections between olfactory bulb and posterior terminal field suggest a laminated structure in the dorsolateral telencephalon.     

Localization and morphometric analysis of masticatory muscle afferent neurons in the nucleus of the mesencephalic root of the trigeminal nerve in the cat

Injections of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) were made into the ipsilateral temporal muscle and contralateral masseter muscle of 10 cats in order to identify and characterize neurons in the nucleus of the mesencephalic root of the trigeminal nerve that innervate muscle receptors in the orofacial periphery. Neurons labelled by HRP injections and unlabelled cells from 5 control cats were measured with a computer-based image analyzer, and their position was mapped on a stereotaxic graph. Cells that innervate the masseter and temporal muscles were identified throughout the rostrocaudal extent of the nucleus. There was no indication of a somatotopic pattern nor of a specific segregation within the nucleus for cells innervating muscle receptors. The nucleus contained small, rounded unipolar neurons located primarily in the dorsal border of the periaqueductal gray (PAG) matter in the rostral part of the nucleus and larger oval unipolar neurons which were scattered throughout the nucleus, but were predominant in the pontine portion of the nucleus. HRP injections labelled both large and small cells, as well as occasional multipolar cells. The last-mentioned tended to be located in the lateral margins of the PAG. The mean geometric values obtained for the control group were: area 552.7 microns2 perimeter 110.3 microns; maximum diameter 36.0 microns. and diameter of an equivalent circle 26.1 microns. The mean values of the labelled neurons were: area 606.6 microns2; perimeter 100.1 microns; maximum diameter 36.0 microns, and diameter of an equivalent circle 27.2 microns.

The neurons of origin of non-cortical afferent connections to the oculomotor nucleus. A retrograde labeling study in the rabbit.

The cellular origin of the brainstem projections to the oculomotor nucleus in the rabbit has been investigated by using free (HRP) and lectin-conjugated horseradish peroxidase (WGA-HRP). Following injections of these tracers into the somatic oculomotor nucleus (OMC), retrogradely labeled cells have been observed in numerous brainstem structures. In particular, bilateral labeling has been found in the four main subdivisions of the vestibular complex, predominantly in the superior and medial vestibular nuclei and the interstitial nucleus of Cajal, while ipsilateral labeling was found in the rostral interstitial nucleus of the medial longitudinal fascicle (Ri-MLF), the Darkschewitsch and the praepositus nuclei. Neurons labeled only contralaterally have been identified in the following structures: mesencephalic reticular formation dorsolateral to the red nucleus, abducens internuclear neurons, group Y, several areas of the lateral and medial regions of the pontine and medullary reticular formation, ventral region of the lateral cerebellar nucleus and caudal anterior interpositus nucleus. This study provides also information regarding differential projections of some centers to rostral and caudal portions of the OMC. Thus, the rostral one-third appears to receive predominant afferents from the superior and medial vestibular nuclei, while the caudal two-thirds receive afferents from all the four vestibular nuclei. Finally, the group Y sends afferents to the middle and caudal, but not to the rostral OMC.     

Analysis of the efferent projections of the lateral geniculate nucleus with special reference to the innervation of the subcommissural organ and related areas

In order to define central neurons projecting to the subcommissural organ (SCO) and to related areas in the postero-medial diencephalon, Phaseolus vulgaris-leucoagglutinin (PHA-L) was injected into the lateral geniculate nucleus of the rat. PHA-L-labelled neurons send axonal processes medially through the posterior thalamic nuclei and the posterior commissure to the other hemisphere. Branches of fibres originating from this projection form a plexus of nerve terminals in the underlying precommissural nucleus and in the nucleus of the posterior commissure. A small number of PHA-L-immunoreactive nerve fibres penetrate from the precommissural nucleus into the lateral part of the SCO. A few labelled fibres penetrate directly from the posterior commissure into the medial part of the caudal SCO. Most of the PHA-L-immunoreactive fibres occur in the hypendymal layer, although a few terminate near the ependymal cells of the organ. Many labelled fibres are found in the ventricular ependyma adjacent to the SCO, some fibres lying close to the ventricular lumen. These results were obtained only if the tracer was delivered into the intergeniculate leaflet of the lateral geniculate nucleus (IGL). The IGL innervates both the suprachiasmatic nucleus and the pineal organ; the connections between the IGL and the midline structures, including the SCO, suggest that these areas are influenced by the circadian system.     

正常豚鼠耳蜗核一氧化氮合酶阳性神经元的投射

本文采用辣根过氧化物酶（ＨＲＰ）逆行追踪技术结合硫辛酰胺脱氨酸（ＮＡＤＰＨ－ｄ）组织化学方法,研究正常豚鼠耳蜗核一氧化氮合酶（ＮＯＳ）阳性神经元的上行投射特点。探讨耳蜗核ＮＯＳ阳性神经元在听觉信号传递中的可能作用。结果表明,一侧上橄榄复合体加压注射ＨＲＰ后,两侧耳蜗核均出现ＨＲＰ标记细胞,同侧耳蜗核ＮＯＳ－ＨＲＰ双标细胞较多占８２．６３％,并可见ＨＲＰ阳性纤维和终末包绕ＮＯＳ阳性胞体,对侧耳蜗核ＮＯＳ－ＨＲＰ双标细胞相对较少,仅占１４．８７％。一侧下丘加压注入ＨＲＰ后两侧耳蜗核均无ＨＲＰ－ＮＯＳ双标细胞。结果提示,耳蜗核ＮＯＳ阳性神经元向上橄榄复合体投射,可能具有调节听觉声信号传递的作用     

Synaptic mechanisms of central control of motoneuronal activity in the facial nerve nucleus

The responses of motoneurons of the facial nerve nucleus (FNN), evoked by stimulations of the oculomotor nerve nucleus, Edinger-Westphal's nucleus,substantia nigra, and entopeduncular nucleus, were studied in acute experiments on anesthetized and immobilized cats. The FNN motoneurons were identified by their antidromic activation after stimulation of various branches of the facial nerve. Stimulation of the oculomotor nerve nucleus, Edinger-Westphal's nucleus, and ipsi- or contralateral parts of thesubstantia nigra evoked mono- and polysynaptic EPSP in the FNN motoneurons, while stimulation of the entopeduncular nucleus elicited only polysynaptic EPSP. The influences from the above structures were shown to converge on the same FNN motoneurons. The findings are discussed considering morphological peculiarities of the afferent inputs to the FNN.Neirofiziologiya/Neurophysiology, Vol. 27, No. 2, pp. 116–125, March–April, 1995.
