Heterogeneous expression of extracellular matrix molecules in the red nucleus of the rat
2016, NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :It is tempting to hypothesize that it might be associated with the somatotopic organization of the afferent and efferent connections of the red nucleus (Reid et al., 1975; Kuypers, 1981; Keifer and Lustig, 2000; Ruigrok, 2004). However, data on the projection and somatotopical organization of the afferent and efferent connections are contradictory due to the notable species differences and experimental methods (Caughell and Flumerfelt, 1977; Murray and Gurule, 1979; Shieh et al., 1983; Angaut and Cicirata, 1988; Ruigrok, 2004). We have detected PNNs with all ECM reactions studied and observed that the expression pattern was related with the cell size independently from the neuronal position within the two subdivisions of the red nucleus.
The differential contributions of the parvocellular and the magnocellular subdivisions of the red nucleus to skilled reaching in the rat
2015, NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :More recently, however, a behavioral/anatomical fractionation technique has revealed that lesions circumscribed to the rubrospinal tract abolish the arpeggio movement, but leave intact all the other movement elements of the reaching action (Morris et al., 2011). That the rubrospinal tract arises primarily from the magnocellular subdivision of the red nucleus (Massion, 1967; Murray and Gurule, 1979) supports the notion that this distinct architectonic area of the red nucleus is responsible for the arpeggio movement. It also suggests that the two other elements of the reach that were reported to be impaired after complete red nucleus lesions, namely aiming and supination (Whishaw and Gorny, 1996; Whishaw et al., 1998) would be under the control of the parvocellular subdivision of the red nucleus.
