Molecular composition and expression pattern of the extracellular matrix in a mossy fiber-generating precerebellar nucleus of rat, the prepositus hypoglossi
2015, Neuroscience LettersCitation Excerpt :However this data is not yet available, except for our results on the climbing fiber-generating inferior olive where the PNNs were not recognizable [28]. The present study is aimed to describe the unknown molecular composition and distribution pattern of ECM in a mossy fiber-generating precerebellar nucleus, the prepositus hypoglossi nucleus (PHN) [1,17,22,37,38,40,50]. PHN extends from the rostral pole of hypoglossal nucleus till the genu of facial nerve.
Neurochemically defined cell columns in the nucleus prepositus hypoglossi of the cat and monkey
2006, Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :The lesions that are most disruptive to oculomotor function were in rostral PH, largely rostral to the dense cluster of 8B3-immunoreactive cells (Cannon and Robinson, 1987; Cheron et al., 1986; Kaneko, 1997, 1999). However, cells with activity related to eye position or eye movement have been found along the entire A–P extent of PH, overlapping the location of the 8B3-labeled cells (Baker et al., 1976; Lopez-Barneo et al., 1982); that information is likely related to the other targets of PH by cells in the region of the 8B3 cells. One possible destination is the cerebellum (Escudero et al., 1996; Fig. 1), another is contralateral PH (Belknap and McCrea, 1988).
Nucleus prepositus
2006, Progress in Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :Other anatomical studies, which will be reviewed below, have shown that the PH is connected not only to the extraocular motor nuclei, but also to most of the areas of the brainstem and cerebellum that are thought to be involved in controlling eye movements. These anatomical observations, in conjunction with the findings that many neurons in the PH have spiking activity that is related to eye movements (Baker et al., 1976; Gresty and Baker, 1976; Lopez-Barneo et al., 1982; Delgado-Garcia et al., 1989; Escudero et al., 1992; McFarland and Fuchs, 1992; Cullen et al., 1993; Sylvestre et al., 2003) and that lesions of the PH produce oculomotor control deficits (Godaux et al., 1993; Mettens et al., 1994; Büttner and Grundei, 1995; Kaneko, 1997, 1999), make the PH an important part of the brainstem circuitry involved in controlling eye movements. In this chapter, the cytological and histochemical characteristics of the PH and our present knowledge of its afferent and efferent connections will be discussed.
