The afferent and efferent connections of the feline nucleus tegmenti pedunculopontinus, pars compacta

The fiber connections of the nucleus tegmenti pedunculopontinus, pars compacta (TPc) were studied by means of the anterograde autoradiographic and retrograde horseradish peroxidase tracer methods. The limits of TPc, which is not a cytoarchitecturally distinct cell group in the cat, were estimated on the basis of autoradiographic experiments in which we plotted the distribution of afferent connections from the entopeduncular nucleus, motor cortex, substantia nigra, and subthalamic nucleus. We concluded that in the cat, TPc can most readily be identified by the terminal distribution of fibers originating in the substantia nigra. Deposits of radiolabel in the motor‐pre‐motor cortex, the entopeduncular nucleus, and subthalamic nucleus weakly labeled the same tegmental region. Parallel horseradish peroxidase experiments suggested that neurons near the entopeduncular nucleus, especially in the lateral hypothalamus and subthalamus, contribute to the pallido‐TPc pathway; that entopeduncular neurons projecting to TPc are most numerous in the ventral part of the nucleus; and that of the neocortical motor fields, both areas 4 and 6 project to TPc.
