solitary tract

It receives axons from the nucleus of the solitary tract.

Solitary tract in the brain stem is sometimes called the bundle of Gierke.

The efferent fibers are distributed to the solitary tract nucleus.

There are numerous synonyms for the solitary tract:

It also receives primary taste afferent information from the solitary tract and projects to the cortical gustatory area.

The area postrema connects to the nucleus of the solitary tract and other autonomic control centers in the brainstem.

Near the sulcus limitans are the visceral afferent nuclei, namely the solitary tract nucleus.

- Brainstem pro-opiomelanocortic neurons originating in the commissural nucleus of the solitary tract.

The afferent vagal fibers connect to the nucleus of the solitary tract which in turn projects connections to other locations in the central nervous system.

Baroreceptor activity travels along these nerves, which contact the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) in the brainstem.

Taste buds in the mucosa of the tongue can also generate impulses in the rostral regions of the solitary tract.

They are located within the caudal medulla oblongata, in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS).

In neurons of the A2 cell group in the nucleus of the solitary tract), norepinephrine co-exists with:

The solitary tract conveys afferent information from stretch receptors and chemoreceptors in the walls of the cardiovascular, respiratory, and intestinal tracts.

Inputs from the brainstem (the nucleus of the solitary tract) and the ventrolateral medulla carry information from the heart and stomach.

The solitary tract is made up of primary sensory fibers and descending fibers of the vagus, glossopharyngeal, and facial nerves.

The hypothalamus receives many inputs from the brainstem; notably from the nucleus of the solitary tract, the locus coeruleus, and the ventrolateral medulla.

In particular, there are populations of somatostatin neurons in the arcuate nucleus, the hippocampus, and the brainstem nucleus of the solitary tract.

It conveys facial sensory information of the trigeminothalamic tract, from the solitary tract and the trigeminal nerve and projects to the postcentral gyrus.

The chorda tympani nerve carries its information to the nucleus of the solitary tract, and shares this area with the greater superficial petrosal and glossopharyngeal nerves.

Some other inputs come from the brainstem, including from some of the noradrenergic neurons of the nucleus of the solitary tract and the ventrolateral medulla.

The dorsal respiratory group (DRG) is located in the dorsomedial region of the medulla, and is composed of cells in the solitary tract nucleus.

Nesfatin-1 immunoreactivity was also found in the brainstem nuclei such as nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) and dorsal nucleus of vagus.

The 5-HT receptors are present in several critical sites involved in emesis, including vagal afferents, the solitary tract nucleus (STN), and the area postrema itself.

The solitary tract is surrounded by the nucleus of the solitary tract, and descends to the upper cervical segments of the spinal cord.
