Axons of ail neurons converged upon the medial longitudinal fasciculus and after making a hairpin turn formed the corresponding motor roots. A group of small neurons constituted a separate subnucleus within the V motor nucleus. The VII and IX nuclei were fused into a single nuclear complex. The nucleus ambiguus was found dorsal to the XII nucleus and lateral to the dorsal vagal nucleus. The latter nucleus extended rostrally to the caudal pole of the VI nucleus, and its neurons sent axons to the VII, IX, and X nerves. The term \u201cdorsal visceromotor column\u201d designates the extended dorsal vagal nucleus. A number of small polygonal neurons lying scattered in the lateral part of the medulla were labeled via the VII, IX, and X nerves. This loose aggregate of labeled neurons was termed the \u201clateral visceromotor area.\u201d On the basis of nuclear topography and cellular morphology, the existence of a bulbar XI nucleus was excluded.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Three different types of neurons could be distinguished in the dorsomedial nuclear column. Neurons with oval or spherical perikarya and radially oriented dendrites constituted the nuclei innervating external eye muscles. Except for the IV nucleus, axons followed a ventral trajectory. The accessory VI nucleus was composed of a second type of neuron with elongated soma and dorsoventral dendrite orientation; the dorsally directed axon turned ventrally at the VI nucleus. The XII nucleus contains a third type of neuron with strongly decussating dendrites. The distinct differences in the neuronal morphology did not support the classical assumption that all of the nuclei of the dorsomedial motor column supply muscles derived from somitic mesoderm.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Sensory fibers of the trigeminal nerve formed the familiar spinal tract, which partially decussated in the medullospinal transition zone and could be followed as far as the lumbar segments on the ipsilateral side of the spinal cord. Neurons of the mesencephalic root of the trigeminal nerve were localized in the optic tectum; their descending fibers joined the medial aspect of the spinal tract. A number of sites, including the V motor nucleus, received terminating collaterals. The solitary tract received primary afferent fibers from the VII, IX, and X nerves. All three components could be followed to the commissura infima. At the level of the VII nucleus, a number of fiber bundles form the tractus solitarius projected to the spinal trigeminal nucleus. Conversely, the nucleus of the solitary tract received a large contingent of fibers from the spinal trigeminal tract.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/cne.902670407","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,1,1]],"date-time":"2005-01-01T20:48:00Z","timestamp":1104612480000},"page":"525-544","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["Topography and organization of cranial nerve nuclei in the sand lizard, <i>Lacerta agilis<\/i>"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"267","author":[{"given":"George","family":"Sz\u00e9kely","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Clara","family":"Matesz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2004,10,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02118182"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0006-8993(82)90444-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_4_1","first-page":"202","article-title":"Le n\u00e9vraxe des reptiles","volume":"14","author":"Anthony J.","year":"1970","journal-title":"Traite Zool."},{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0306-4522(84)90096-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_6_1","volume-title":"The Comparative Anatomy of the Nervous System of Vertebrates, Including Man, Vol. I","author":"Ari\u00ebns Kappera C.
