1. Caracterização citoarquitetônica, neuroquímica e de aferência óptica do complexo parabraquial do sagui (Callithrix jacchus)
The parabrachial complex (PB) is an area of the brainstem responsible for the processing and transmission of essential physiologic information for the survival of the organisms. This region is subdivided in approximately nine subregions, considering morphology, cytoarchitectural and functional characteristic. Its neurons have an extensive network of connecti

2. Changes in sodium appetite evoked by lesions of the commissural nucleus of the tractus solitarius
Ablation of the area postrema/caudal nucleus of the tractus solitarius (NTS) complex increases sodium intake, but the effect of selective lesions of the caudal NTS is not known. We measured depletion-induced sodium intake in rats with electrolytic lesions of the commissural NTS that spared the area postrema. One day after the lesion, rats were depleted of so

3. Efeitos da injeção de moxonidina no controle da ingestão de sódio e regulação cardiovascular.
Deficit of water and sodium in the body is detected by receptors located in different parts of the body. These receptors or hormones signalize to specific areas in the brain that control renal responses and water and sodium intake. Among these areas are: organum vasculosum of the lamina terminalis (OVLT), subfornical organ (SFO), anteroventral third ventricl

4. Afferent connections of the amygdalopiriform transition area (APir) of the rat. / Conexões aferentes da área de transição amígdalo-piriforme (APir) no rato.
The amygdalo-piriform transition area (APir) lies at the junction of the piriform, periamygdaloid and entorhinal cortices. The afferent connections of this olfactory district were studied with retrograde tracing methods using the cholera toxin B subunit and Fluoro-Gold as tracers. Our retrograde experiments showed that the main input sources to APir derive f

5. Cardiovascular and respiratory effects of stimulation of cell bodies of the parabrachial nuclei in the anaesthetized rat.
1. In order to assess the importance of the parabrachial nuclei in modulating cardiorespiratory activity, electric current or microinjections of glutamate were used to stimulate discrete regions of the parabrachial nuclei in anaesthetized rats. 2. Stimulation of cell bodies in the medial region of the parabrachial nuclei and in the Kölliker-Fuse nuclei, cau

6. Characteristics of Rostral Solitary Tract Nucleus Neurons With Identified Afferent Connections That Project to the Parabrachial Nucleus in Rats
Afferent information derived from oral chemoreceptors is transmitted to second-order neurons in the rostral solitary tract nucleus (rNST) and then relayed to other CNS locations responsible for complex sensory and motor behaviors. Here we investigate the characteristics of rNST neurons sending information rostrally to the parabrachial nucleus (PBN). Afferent

7. Relative numbers of cortical and brainstem inputs to the lateral geniculate nucleus
Terminals of a morphological type known as RD (for round vesicles and dense mitochondria, which we define here as the aggregate of types formerly known as RSD and RLD, where “S” is small and “L” is large) constitute at least half of the synaptic inputs to the feline lateral geniculate nucleus, which represents the thalamic relay of retinal input to c

8. Distribution of corticotropin-releasing factor receptors in primate brain.
The distribution and properties of receptors for corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) were analyzed in the brain of cynomolgus monkeys. Binding of [125I]tyrosine-labeled ovine CRF to frontal cortex and amygdala membrane-rich fractions was saturable, specific, and time- and temperature-dependent, reaching equilibrium in 30 min at 23 degrees C.
