Abstract

The pedunculopontine-laterodorsal tegmental nuclear complex was identified as a major source of brainstem afferents terminating in the fastigial cerebellar nucleus and/or ventrolateral reticular nucleus (n. Rvl). Collaterals from the pedunculopontine nucleus (Ch5 area) to rostral [vasopressor] regions of the fastigial nucleus and ventral reticular formation were revealed with a combined retrograde tracing technique. The data implicate acetylcholine as a transmitter and raise the hypothesis that the identified afferents may contribute to the autonomic and behavioral responses to midline cerebellar stimulation.
