Abstract
In New Zealand white rabbits, cholera-toxin HRP was injected into the carotid sinus nerve just proximal to the carotid sinus. After survival periods of 3–5 days the rabbits were anesthetized and the brain fixed with aldehyde solution. Transverse sections were cut on a sledge microtome and the sections reacted with the tetramethylbenzidine procedure. HRP-positive fibers entered the ipsilateral dorsolateral medulla at the level of the acoustic tubercle, joining the tractus solitarius. Positive fibres were found principally ipsilaterally in four regions of the medulla: in the caudal two thirds of the nucleus tractus solitarius, in its dorsolateral regions and, more caudally, in its commissural subdivision; in the dorsolateral aspect of the spinal nucleus of the trigeminal nerve; in the region ventral and ventrolateral to the tractus solitarius (extending beyond the nucleus tractus solitarius); and in the ventrolateral medulla oblongata.
