The antinociception evoked by anterior pretectal nucleus stimulation is partially dependent upon ventrolateral medullary neurones

Electrical stimulation (35 μA rms/15 s) of the anterior pretectal nucleus (APtN) inhibits the spinal reflex of the tail-flick (TF) to noxious heat in unanaesthetised rats. APtN stimulation also reduces the nociceptive response of spinal dorsal horn neurones in halothane-anaesthetised rats. This stud...

description Electrical stimulation (35 μA rms/15 s) of the anterior pretectal nucleus (APtN) inhibits the spinal reflex of the tail-flick (TF) to noxious heat in unanaesthetised rats. APtN stimulation also reduces the nociceptive response of spinal dorsal horn neurones in halothane-anaesthetised rats. This study determined if the antinociceptive effects of APtN stimulation depended on neurones in the ventral medulla. Bilateral electrolytic lesions of the ventrolateral medulla, but not the nucleus raphe magnus, reduced by 70% the antinociceptive effect of APtN stimulation in the TF test. In rats anaesthetised with halothane, electrical stimulation of the APtN (single square wave 0.1 msec pulses, 2–20 μA, 1 Hz) excited cells in the ventrolateral medulla. These data suggest a connection between both areas. This connection is futher confirmed by neuroanatomical tract tracing studies in which the retrograde dye Fast Blue was injected into the ventrolateral medulla. Fluorescent cell bodies were found in the APtN. We therefore conclude that the ventrolateral medulla is part of a descending antinociceptive pathway from the APtN.
