Pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus

Figure 7.4 Summary of some of the wide array of afferent and efferent connections of midbrain dopaminergic neurons (SN/A9, RRF/A8, and VTA/A10 in center of figure). This emphasizes their potential involvement in coordination of seemingly disparate behaviors inclusive of the sleep-wake state of the organism. Abbreviations BP, blood pressure BST, bed nucleus of the stria terminalis CEA, central nucleus of the amygdala MEA, midbrain extrapyramidal area NTS, nucleus of the solitary tract O2, oxygen tension PPN, pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus RRF, retrorubral field SN, substantia nigra VTA, ventral tegmental area.

Another pontine area of interest regarding analgesia is the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus (PPTN), which is a major brain stem source of cholinergic cells. The PPTN has projections to the RVM and spinal cord (Iwamoto and Marion 1993). The RVM receives input from many brain areas relevant to analgesia, and has projections to the spinal cord (Fields et al. 1991 Zagon 1995). [Pg.300]
