- W2065132259 abstract "Previous data indicate that there are anatomically segregated and physiologically independent parasympathetic postganglionic vagal motoneurons on the surface of the heart which are capable of selective control of sinoatrial rate, atrioventricular conduction and atrial contractility. We have injected a retrograde tracer into the cardiac ganglion which selectively regulates atrioventricular conduction (the AV ganglion). Medullary tissues were processed for the histochemical detection of retrogradely labeled neurons by light and electron microscopic methods. Negative dromotropic retrogradely labeled cells were found in a long column in the ventrolateral nucleus ambiguus (NA-VL), which enlarged somewhat at the level of the area postrema, but reached its largest size rostral to the area postrema in an area termed the rostral ventrolateral nucleus ambiguus (rNA-VL). Three times as many cells were observed in the left rNA-VL as compared to the right (P < 0.025). Retrogradely labeled cells were also consistantly observed in the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMV). The DMV contained one third as many cells as the NA-VL. The right DMV contained twice as many cells as the left (P < 0.05). These data are consistent with physiological evidence that suggests that the left vagus nerve is dominant in the regulation of AV conduction, but that the right vagus nerve is also influential. While recording the electrocardiogram in paced and non-paced hearts, L-glutamate (GLU) was microinjected into the rNA-VL. Microinjections of GLU caused a 76% decrease in the rate of atrioventricular (AV) conduction (P < 0.05) and occasional second degree heart block, without changing heart rate. The effects of GLU were abolished by ipsilateral cervical vagotomy. These physiological data therefore support the anatomical inference that CNS neurons that are retrogradely labeled from the AV ganglion selectively exhibit negative dromotropic properties. Retrogradely labeled negative dromotropic neurons displayed a round nucleus with ample cytoplasm, abundant rough endoplasmic reticulum and the presence of distinctive somatic and dendritic spines. These neurons received synapses from afferent terminals containing small pleomorphic vesicles and large dense core vesicles. These terminals made both asymmetric and symmetric contacts with negative dromotropic dendrites and perikarya, respectively. In conclusion, the data presented indicate that there is a cardiotopic organization of ultrastructurally distinctive negative dromotropic neurons in the NA-VL. This central organization of parasympathetic preganglionic vagal motoneurons mirrors the functional organization of cardioinhibitory postganglionic neurons of the peripheral vagus nerve. These data are further discussed in comparison to a recent report on the light microscopic distribution and ultrastructural characteristics of negative chronotropic neurons in the NA-VL42.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)" @default.
