Direct projections from serotonin-, substance P- and tyrosine hydroxylase-like immunoreactive neurons in the midbrain periaqueductal gray (PAG) to the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMH) in the rat were investigated by the retrograde horseradish peroxidase tracing method combined with the immunocytochemical technique. Serotonin-, substance P- and tyrosine hydroxylase-like immunoreactive PAG neurons sending their axons to the VMH were distributed in the ventrolateral subnucleus and ventral portion of the medial subnucleus of PAG at the middle and caudal levels.
采用辣根过氧化物酶逆行追踪法结合免疫细胞化学技术,研究了大鼠中脑导水管周围灰质(PAG)中5-羟色胺、P物质和酪氨酸羟化酶样免疫反应性神经元向腹内侧下丘脑核(VMH)的直接投射。向VMH发出轴突的5-羟色胺、P物质和酪氨酸羟化酶样免疫反应性PAG神经元分布在中脑和尾侧水平PAG的外侧腹侧亚核和内侧亚核的腹侧部分。
