1. Medial lemniscal axons were identified by extra- and intracellular recording in the thalamic ventral posterior lateral nucleus (VPL) of cats and injected intracellularly with horseradish peroxidase (HRP). 2. Axons were characterized in terms of their latencies of response to stimulation of the medial lemniscus in the medulla, their receptive fields, and the temporal patterns of their discharge in response to stimulation of the receptive field with natural, hand-held stimuli. One-hundred sixty-six axons were placed in five operational groups: hair transient (Ht) (n = 41); hair sustained (Hs) (n = 45); pressure transient (Pt) (n = 14); pressure sustained (Ps) (n = 27), and deep or joint (Jt) (n = 39). 3. There was a tendency for Jt axons to have their terminations in anterodorsal parts of VPL and for those in the four cutaneous categories to have theirs in more central parts of the nucleus. 4. Nineteen injected axons with receptive fields mainly on the distal forelimb were subjected to detailed morphological analysis in terms of extent of terminal field and number of boutons. All axons ended in localized terminal fields that were more extensive anteroposteriorly than in the other dimensions. All showed an overall similarity and similar ranges of variation. There was a tendency, however, for Jt axons to have the least extensive terminations with fewest boutons. Ps axons had the most extensive terminations and largest number of boutons; Hs axons had small terminations and few boutons but Ht axons had small-to-medium arborizations with many boutons; no Pt axons were sufficiently well stained to enable comparisons of them with the others. There were no marked differences in axon diameter or conduction velocity among the five types. 5. Boutons identified light microscopically tended to be clustered in linear chains along proximal dendrites of relay neurons and electron microscopy revealed that they were terminals making synaptic contacts on relay cell dendrites and on presynaptic dendrites of interneurons. 6. These results reveal more similarities than differences among lemniscal axon terminations in VPL. Further studies of a quantitative nature on stimulus-response coupling and on the geographic distribution of lemniscal synapses on relay neurons will be required to reveal how lemniscal input is translated into relay cell output in VPL.

1. The lateral cervical nucleus (LCN) was investigated with extracellular recordings in the anesthetized cat. A total of 556 LCN units were characterized; the locations of most of these were histologically verified. Half of these had receptive fields on the rostral third of the ipsilateral body surface including the face; 14% had fields on the thorax or abdomen, 33% had fields on the hindlimb or tail, and about 3% had receptive fields larger than one limb. 2. The LCN was observed to be somatotopically organized in experiments using angled microelectrode penetrations. Hindlimb units were dorsolateral, forelimb units ventromedial, and face units most medial within the LCN. In regions where LCN cells were present only in the medial portion of the dorsolateral funiculus, they were all forelimb units. 3. A special subpopulation (17%) of cells were clustered most ventromedially in the LCN. These units had large or disjoint receptive fields, and/or responded to deep, visceral, or noxious stimulation. A third of these did not project in the medial lemniscus (ML); many were synaptically activated by stimulation of the ML. Those that did project in the ML had significantly longer latencies than all other LCN units. It is suggested that this subpopulation contains local LCN interneurons. 4. The specific mechanoreceptor inputs were identified for each of 121 projecting LCN units. Receptor inputs were uniform across each receptive field; that is, each unit that responded to a given receptor type was observed to respond to receptors of that type throughout its receptive field. Input from large-fiber-diameter, velocity-sensitive mechanoreceptors was predominant. The absence of input from slowly adapting type I and II receptors and from joint receptors was confirmed. A significant number of units (17.3%) could be driven by only one receptor type. The LCN sample profile agrees closely with the receptor representation in the hindlimb portion of the spinocervical tract. It is concluded that these data that anatomic specification of convergence occurs in the LCN with respect to receptor connectivity, and that this specification originates in lamina IV of the dorsal horn. 5. Stimulation of the dorsal column nuclei synaptically excited 23% of the LCN units tested. In two cases it was possible to demonstrate, by collision, that this occurred via collaterals of spinocervical tract axons. It is concluded that some spinocervical axons have collaterals terminating in the rostral parts of the dorsal column nuclei.

Pain has a strong emotional dimension, and the amygdala plays a key role in emotionality. The processing of nociceptive mechanical and thermal information was studied in individual neurons of the central nucleus of the amygdala, the target of the spino-parabrachio-amygdaloid pain pathway and a major output nucleus of the amygdala. This study is the first to characterize nociceptive amygdala neurons with input from deep tissue, particularly the knee joint. In 46 anesthetized rats, extracellular single-unit recordings were made from 119 central amygdala neurons that were activated orthodromically by electrical stimulation in the lateral pontine parabrachial area and were tested for receptive fields in the knee joints. Responses to brief mechanical stimulation of joints, muscles, and skin and to cutaneous thermal stimuli were recorded. Receptive-field sizes and thresholds were mapped and stimulus-response functions constructed. Neurons in the central nucleus of the amygdala with excitatory input from the knee joint ( n = 62) typically had large symmetrical receptive fields in both hindlimbs or in all four extremities and responded exclusively or preferentially to noxious mechanical stimulation of deep tissue ( n = 58). Noxious mechanical stimulation of the skin excited 30 of these neurons; noxious heat activated 21 neurons. Stimulus-response data were best fitted by a sigmoid nonlinear regression model rather than by a monotonically increasing linear function. Another 15 neurons were inhibited by noxious mechanical stimulation of the knee joint and other deep tissue. Fifteen neurons had no receptive field in the knee but responded to noxious stimulation of other body areas; 27 nonresponsive neurons were not activated by natural somesthetic stimulation. Our data suggest that excitation is the predominant effect of brief painful stimulation of somatic tissue on the population of central amygdala neurons with knee joint input. Their large symmetrical receptive fields and sigmoid rather than monotonically increasing linear stimulus-response functions suggest a role of nociceptive central amygdala neurons in other than sensory-discriminative aspects of pain.

1. A survey was made of neurons located in the ventral posterior lateral nucleus of the cat thalamus and its immediate vicinity for elements with specifically nociceptive properties. 2. Pipette microelectrodes filled with a dye solution were used to obtain extracellular recordings of unitary activity in 34 animals anesthetized with chloralose. 3. The great majority of the over 1,000 different single units responding to sciatic nerve stimulation noted in this series of experiments could also be excited by innocuous mechanical stimulation of skin or subcutaneous tissues. An infrequent but consistently noted group of units excited by A-alpha beta delta sciatic nerve volleys did not respond to innocuous mechanical manipulation or A-alpha beta sciatic nerve volleys; they were excited only by either noxious levels of mechanical stimulation or when volleys included the activity of more slowly conducting myelinated fibers. The latencies of such "high-threshold" units to sciatic volleys were longer than those of the other units. 4. Histologically identified recording sites marked by dye were recovered for 17 high-threshold units. Twelve of the 17 could be excited by noxious manipulations of restricted parts of the contralateral hindlimb. Nine of the 12 had cutaneous receptive fields, whereas 3 responded only to stimulation of subcutaneous tissues. None of the 17 high-threshold units evidenced additional discharges that could be correlated with the C-fiber component of sciatic nerve volleys. 5. The high-threshold units typically exhibited a low level of irregular background activity, which increased on repeated noxious stimulation of the peripheral receptive fields. Tactile units of the same or adjacent penetrations usually had a much greater degree of ongoing activity, often marked by bursts at a relatively high frequency. 6. The recording sites for the 17 high-threshold neurons were located dorsal and ventrolateral to the core of the ventrobasal nuclei and were not found in the midst of the low-threshold, cutaneous, mechanoreceptive population. During vertical stereotaxic penetrations, high-threshold units were noted dorsal or ventral to the location of ventrobasal tactile units in a pattern consistent with the core's somatotopic arrangement. 7. These results support the concept that the cat ventrolateral thalamus receives a small but distinct selectively nociceptive projection. The nociceptive neurons appear to be located in a shell that surrounds the main tactile projection to the ventral posterior lateral nucleus and that retains at least part of the topographic arrangement characteristic of the tactile core. Presumably, this projection is part of an organization identifying and localizing noxious stimulation.

1. Properties of 90 lateral cervical nucleus (LCN) neurons responsive to light tactile stimulation of ipsilateral body surfaces were examined in pentobarbital sodium-anesthetized raccoons. Peripheral receptive fields (RFs) of 60 of these lay totally or partially on glabrous skin of the forepaw. There were 71 neurons antidromically activated from the contralateral thalamic ventro-basal complex (VB) or medial lemniscus. Results were compared with previous findings in the raccoon spinocervical tract (SCT) and the dorsal column-medial lemniscal system (DC-MLS). 2. RFs located on glabrous skin of the digits were significantly smaller than those located on glabrous skin of the palm. All RFs, whether on glabrous skin of the forepaw or elsewhere, tended to be larger than those of either SCT or DC-MLS neurons. LCN units with glabrous forepaw RFs tended to be located ventrally within the nucleus. 3. Of those LCN neurons for which the RFs lay totally or partially on glabrous skin of the forepaw, relative numbers that were rapidly adapting (RA; 77%) versus slowly adapting (SA; 23%) were comparable with those found in the SCT and in VB. Relative numbers of LCN neurons that were classed as light touch (87%) versus multireceptive (13%) were comparable with those found in the SCT. 4. In contrast to both the SCT and VB, but in common with the prethalamic DC-MLS, indentation velocity coding functions of both RA and SA units fell within homogeneous groupings, power function exponents for RA units tending to be steeper than those for SA units (range of b = 0.710 - 0.919 vs. 0.448 - 0.883). 5. It is concluded that the raccoon spinocervicothalamic system (SCTS) as a whole lacks the "modality and place specificity" associated with the DC-MLS. Although the SCTS probably makes significant contributions to properties of VB neurons, these properties primarily reflect those of neurons of the DC-MLS.

1. Experiments were carried out in chloralose-anesthetized cats to study the responses of neurons in the lateral thalamus to excitation of afferent fibres from the knee joint. 2. Single- and multi-unit recordings were made with tungsten electrodes in dorsoventral penetrations through the ventral posterior lateral nucleus (VPL) during electrical stimulation of the medial articular nerve (MAN) of the cat's knee joint at an intensity sufficient to excite slowly conducting unmyelinated fibers. The locations of the recording sites were verified by recovering electrolytic lesion sites in histological sections (Nissl and cytochrome oxidase staining). 3. The average earliest latency for excitation of thalamic responses was 19.1 +/- 8.5 (SD) ms (n = 50). The threshold for excitation of most thalamic units was found to correspond to peripheral joint afferent fibers of the A-delta group. 4. The majority of neurons responding to MAN stimulation were found to be dorsal or ventral to the low-threshold cutaneous hindlimb region of the lateral division of the VPL (stereotaxic coordinates: AP 9.0-11.5; ML 7.0-9.5). In the ventral periphery of the VPL, most neurons responding to MAN stimulation (11/14) were wide dynamic range (WDR) with a discrete cutaneous receptive field on the hindpaw digits. Six WDR neurons were found dorsal to the hindlimb VPL with a convergent receptive field on the hindlimb (but not hindpaw digits). No nociceptive-specific knee joint units were found. 5. Other neurons were found dorsal to the hindlimb VPL with large receptive fields often encompassing the whole contralateral leg, including skin and deep hindlimb structures, possibly in a region described as the dorsal portion of the posterior complex (POd). Some neurons were found with no receptive field. 6. This study provides the first observations on the responses of lateral thalamic neurons to stimulation of the MAN of the cat knee joint. These results demonstrate a central pathway conveying impulses from specific deep joint afferents of the MAN to the peripheral region of the VPL and overlying region known as the POd, regions implicated in the transmission of nociceptive information.

Douglass, Diana K. and E. Carstens. Responses of rat sacral spinal neurons to mechanical and noxious thermal stimulation of the tail. J. Neurophysiol. 77: 611–620, 1997. In this study we investigated the receptive field properties, responses to mechanical and thermal stimuli, and sensitivity to systemic administration of pentobarbital sodium and morphine of single neurons recorded in the sacral spinal cords of pentobarbital-anesthetized rats. Fifty-three neurons responded to innocuous mechanical stimulation of the tail. Of 45 neurons that were additionally tested with noxious thermal stimulation, 62% responded and were classified as wide-dynamic-range or multireceptive neurons. Recording sites were located mainly in the middle layers of the S2–S4 dorsal horn. Mechanosensitive receptive fields on the tail varied widely in size (range 0.14–35 cm2, mean 10.33 cm2) and form, and were in nearly all cases bilateral. Most neurons responded with a high-frequency discharge followed by a more slowly adapting response to pressure stimuli delivered with von Frey hairs. Responses (maximal frequency and total number of impulses) increased in a graded manner to pressure stimuli ranging from 1.2 to 447 g. For neurons responsive to noxious heating of the tail, responses increased in a linear manner over the range of 38–54°C and often leveled off at higher temperatures. Of nine neurons tested with both graded von Frey and noxious heat stimuli, mean responses (maximal frequency and total number of impulses) evoked by the strongest pressure stimuli were larger than those evoked by the most intense heat stimuli, but the difference was not statistically significant. Responses to repeated 48°C stimuli were significantly attenuated within 8 min after systemic administration of morphine (1 or 2 mg/kg ip), reaching maximal suppression (to 37.3%; N = 13) after 18 min, with recovery following systemic naloxone. After morphine (1 and 2 mg/kg ip), the slope of the population stimulus-response function for noxious heat was reduced (51.8%), and the threshold was increased (by 4°C). Responses to noxious heat were significantly depressed (to a mean of 54%; N = 10) by supplemental administration of pentobarbital (mean 17 mg/kg over 5 min). On the basis of similarities between the present data and previous behavioral measures of tail flick stimulus-response functions and their modulation, it is suggested that some of the present neurons might function as interneurons in the tail flick reflex arc.

1. Extracellular and intracellular methods were used to record from fibers and neurons in the ventral lateral (VL) and adjacent nuclei of the cat thalamus. The receptive fields of the recorded units were analyzed and the units tested for inputs from the medial lemniscus (ML) and spinothalamic tract (STT) by electrical stimulation of the dorsal columns (DC) and ventrolateral funiculus (VLF) at the C2-3 spinal level. 2. Thirty-eight STT fibers were isolated in the thalamus. Their conduction velocities ranged from 15 to 75 m/s (mode 36 m/s). Adequate stimuli were found for 23 of these fibers. Seventeen were low-threshold (LT), 3 were wide-dynamic-range (WDR), and 3 were high-threshold (HT) units. 3. Five STT fibers were intra-axonally injected. Three were sufficiently well filled for analysis of their terminal fields. An intermediate-velocity STT fiber (conduction velocity 38 m/s) had a 4.3-microns axon and a single large terminal field in the central lateral nucleus (CL). The other two STT fibers were smaller, with diameters of 2.5 and 2.3 microns, conduction velocities of 15 and 19 m/s, and terminal fields made up of a few small boutons at the borders of the ventral posterior lateral nucleus (VPL). 4. Of 319 neurons isolated, 14 out of 129 (10.8%) in VL, 14 out of 76 (18.4%) in the VPL or ventral posterior medial (VPM) nucleus, 27 out of 64 (42.2%) in the CL nucleus, and 5 out of 50 (10%) in the reticular nucleus (R) responded at latencies less than 50 ms to VLF stimuli. A train of three pulses was more effective in driving VLF-responding neurons in all these nuclei than a single pulse. VLF-responding cells were widely dispersed in VL, concentrated in a focus in CL, and distributed around the borders of VPL. Most of those in VL and a small number in CL could be antidromically activated by stimulation of motor cortex. 5. Latencies of presynaptic responses (STT fibers) to VLF stimulation were short and varied from 0.8 to 3.9 ms (mode 1.6 ms). Despite this, very few fast-responding neurons were found. These were six VPL neurons (2.5 to 4 ms), one VL neuron (3 ms), and four CL neurons (3-4 ms). The initial spike latencies of the majority of thalamic neurons responding to VLF stimulation appeared in two peaks, one between 6 and 8 ms and the other at 10-15 ms.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

1. In penetrations made into the upper bank of the lateral sulcus in two monkeys (Macaca mulatta), cells were isolated from the second somatosensory cortex (SII). During single-cell recordings, animals performed an active touch task in which they rubbed their fingertips over pairs of gratings differing in groove width and indicated which was the smoother surface. Hand motion and downward applied force were measured and recorded during these strokes. 2. In this survey, 151 penetrations provided observations on 352 cells that responded to passive stimulation of the digits or during performance of the active touch task. Consistent with previous reports, receptive fields (RFs) in SII were large, often multi-digit, and frequently included a portion or all of the hand and occasionally the arm. Modality was determined for 92 of 127 fully characterized cells, and included 70 cutaneous, 5 deep, 11 Pacinian corpuscle, and 6 joint cells. Characteristic of SII, modality could not be defined in 35 cells that were unresponsive to passive stimulation or whose responses varied widely over time. 3. Response properties of a subgroup of 79 cells in SII resembled those previously studied in the primary somatosensory cortex (SI) and ventroposterior lateral nucleus of the thalamus (VPL) using identical procedures. Correlation analysis revealed that 29 of these cells, like a portion of cells in SI, responded to changes in groove width independent of force or velocity. This selectivity could be considered a form of feature specificity. 4. In contrast to SI and VPL, transient responses to the fingertips contacting small elevated metal bars, which demarcated the beginning, middle, and end of strokes across the gratings, were seen in a majority of SII cells (109/127). During contact with bars, 89 cells displayed excitatory responses and 20 cells showed suppressed activity. Twelve cells, which responded to bars in isolation from gratings, provided a possible example of increased stimulus selectivity. 5. Passive stimulation failed to activate 16 cells that responded, in some cases differentially to gratings or force, during the task. Responses of nine other cells demonstrated task-dependent modulation in the form of response reduction or enhancement during selected portions of the stroke. In these same cells, response changes did not occur under comparable stimulus conditions in other portions of the stroke that differed only in behavioral context. These types of selective response modulations, not noted in our previous studies of VPL or SI, suggest that mechanisms regulating sensory inputs may affect SII.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

AbstractDeep brain stimulation (DBS) of the nucleus basalis of Meynert (NBM) has been clinically investigated in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Lewy body dementia (LBD). However, the clinical effects are highly variable, which questions the suggested basic principles underlying these clinical trials. Therefore, preclinical and clinical data on the design of NBM stimulation experiments and its effects on behavioral and neurophysiological aspects are systematically reviewed here. Animal studies have shown that electrical stimulation of the NBM enhanced cognition, increased the release of acetylcholine, enhanced cerebral blood flow, released several neuroprotective factors, and facilitates plasticity of cortical and subcortical receptive fields. However, the translation of these outcomes to current clinical practice is hampered by the fact that mainly animals with an intact NBM were used, whereas most animals were stimulated unilaterally, with different stimulation paradigms for only restricted timeframes. Future animal research has to refine the NBM stimulation methods, using partially lesioned NBM nuclei, to better resemble the clinical situation in AD, and LBD. More preclinical data on the effect of stimulation of lesioned NBM should be present, before DBS of the NBM in human is explored further.
