The site of origin of cardiac preganglionic fibers of the vagus nerve: an HRP study in the cat

The site of origin of cardiac preganglionic fibers of the vagus nerve: an HRP study in the cat

T Sugimoto et al. Neurosci Lett. 1979 Apr.

Abstract

After injection of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) into the right cardiac branches of the vagus nerve in the cat, the majority of HRP-labeled neurons were located ipsilaterally in the reticular formation ventrolateral to the nucleus ambiguus. Additionally, HRP-labeled neurons were also observed within the nucleus ambiguus (Am) and the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve (DM).
