基底前脑中的胆固醇细胞激活杏仁体和前额皮层. 一些细胞投射到两个区域,这表明连接的大脑区域的双重控制机制.
科学领域:
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 细胞生物学 细胞生物学
背景情况:
- 胆固醇细胞被假设能激活相互连接的皮质区域.
- 了解这些细胞的内化模式对于破译大脑功能至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 为了研究杏仁体和前额叶皮层的胆能内化.
- 为了确定胆固醇细胞是否同时向两个区域投射.
主要方法:
- 追踪实验以确定从基底前脑 (BF) 区域到基底侧桃体 (BLA) 和中间前额皮层 (mPFC) 的投影.
- 逆向-逆向病毒追踪以评估双内内发.
- 膀性谷氨酸转运体3型 (VGLUT3) 和GABA表达的分析.
主要成果:
- 不同的BF区域 (VP/SI,HDB) 项目到特定的BLA核 (BA,BMA).
- 来自BF区域的胆神经元激活mPFC,在背部和腹部区域有分离的突出.
- 投射mPFC的胆能神经元的一个子集也激活BLA (特别是BA).
- 在VP/SI中,28%的胆固醇细胞显示mPFC和BA的双重标记.
- 在VP/SI中的VGLUT3表达神经元具有胆固醇作用,并被投射到mPFC和BLA.
- 在BF胆固醇神经元中,GABA不太可能是共传递体.
结论:
- 胆固醇细胞群体表现出双重内化策略,单独或同时投射到BLA和mPFC.
- 这种双重内化允许同步和独立地控制功能连接的皮质区域.
- VGLUT3的存在表明胆固醇附属体具有复杂的功能作用,可能涉及谷氨酸联合释放.

Collateral Ganglia
Sympathetic preganglionic axons reach the collateral ganglia along the route of splanchnic nerves. These nerves bypass the sympathetic trunk and communicate with sympathetic postganglionic neurons housed in the prevertebral ganglia. These ganglia supply the organs of the abdominopelvic cavity.
The greater splanchnic nerve, formed by the...
