Brainstem projections of the aortic nerve in the rat were studied using the transganglionic transport of horseradish peroxidase. Labeled axons were found to project predominantly to the ipsilateral interstitial nucleus and to the ipsilateral dorsolateral aspect of the nucleus of the solitary tract near the level of the obex. Lighter bilateral projections were also found to the medial, ventrolateral and dorsolateral aspects of the solitary complex, and to the commissural nucleus. These data provide evidence of direct aortic baroreceptor afferent projections to restricted regions of the solitary complex and indicate that these specific areas function in the integration of the baroreceptor reflex.
利用辣根过氧化物酶的跨神经节运输，对大鼠主动脉神经的脑干投射进行了研究。发现标记的轴突主要投射到同侧的间质核以及闩水平附近孤束核的同侧背外侧部分。还发现向孤束复合体的内侧、腹外侧和背外侧部分以及连合核有较淡的双侧投射。这些数据为主动脉压力感受器传入纤维直接投射到孤束复合体的特定区域提供了证据，并表明这些特定区域在压力感受器反射的整合中发挥作用。
