Origin of descending projections to identified sympathetic preganglionic neurons

Abstract:

Relatively little is known about the pathways that control the ultimate step in central vasomotor regulatory system, i.e. the sympathetic preganglionic neurons whose cell bodies lie in the thoracic spinal cord. My main aim was see if these cells receive a direct input from the vasomotor areas of the ventral medulla which are considered as the major source of descending sympatho-regulatory influences. Using a combination of anterograde and retrograde tract-tracing and electron microscopy th...
