Putative nociceptive modulatory neurons in the dorsolateral pontomesencephalic reticular formation.

Abstract:

:The present study was undertaken to confirm the dorsolateral pontomesencephalic reticular formation (an area that includes the nucleus cuneiformis (NCF) and nucleus parabrachialis (NPB)) as a sensitive site for stimulation-produced antinociception and to investigate the possibility that there are cells in this region that show a change in activity that can be correlated with the occurrence of a nocifensive reflex (the tail-flick withdrawal response from noxious heat (TF)). Such cells have been previously demonstrated in the rostral ventromedial medulla (RVM). Extracellular single unit recording studies were made at sites from which it was possible to inhibit the TF with currents of 10 microA or less. Cellular response to 3 TF trials at 5 min intervals, and spontaneous activity over a 10 min period, were monitored for each unit. Of the cells encountered, 17% displayed an increase (on-cells) and 4% a decrease (off-cells) in activity that preceded the TF. The remaining cells were unaffected by the TF (neutral cells). On- and off-cells were found throughout the region from which TF suppression was observed but were most concentrated in the areas of the NCF and NPB. The presence of on- and off-cells in the NCF/NPB region as well as the RVM suggests that the input to RVM from NCF/NPB may be important in descending nociceptive modulation.
