and vagus nerves, has efferent projections to bulbar, pontine and possibly to thalamic
structures associated with nociception, thermoregulation and cardiovascular control.
Anterograde neuronal tracers were used to study paratrigeminal efferent connections.
Labeled terminal fibers, evidencing bilateral efferent paratrigeminal projections were
observed in the medial and caudal solitary tract (sol), lateral reticular nucleus (LRt) …
