• W3165318407 abstract "The arcuate nucleus (Arc) of the medulla is found in almost all human brains and in a small percentage of chimpanzee brains. It is absent in the brains of other mammalian species including mice, rats, cats, and macaque monkeys. The Arc is classically considered a precerebellar relay nucleus, receiving input from the cerebral cortex and projecting to the cerebellum via the inferior cerebellar peduncle. However, several studies have found aplasia of the Arc in babies who died of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), and it was suggested that the Arc is the locus of chemosensory neurons critical for brainstem control of respiration. Aplasia of the Arc, however, has also been reported in adults, suggesting that it is not critical for survival. We have examined the Arc in closely spaced Nissl-stained sections in thirteen adult human cases to acquire a better understanding of the degree of variability of its size and location in adults. We have also examined immunostained sections to look for neurochemical compartments in this nucleus. Caudally, neurons of the Arc are ventrolateral to the pyramidal tracts (py); rostrally, they are ventro-medial to the py and extend up along the midline. In some cases, the Arc is discontinuous, with a gap between sections with the ventrolaterally located and the ventromedially located neurons. In all cases, there is some degree of left-right asymmetry in Arc position, size, and shape at all rostro-caudal levels. Somata of neurons in the Arc express calretinin (CR), neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), and nonphosphorylated neurofilament protein (NPNFP). Calbindin (CB) is expressed in puncta whereas there is no expression of parvalbumin (PV) in somata or puncta. There is also immunostaining for GAD and GABA receptors suggesting inhibitory input to Arc neurons. These properties were consistent among cases. Our data show differences in location of caudal and rostral Arc neurons and considerable variability among cases in the size and shape of the Arc. The variability in size suggests that hypoplasia of the Arc is difficult to define. The discontinuity of the Arc in many cases suggests that establishing aplasia of the Arc requires examination of many closely spaced sections through the brainstem." @default.
