Observations on the development of the peripheral portion of the oculomotor nerve in man and the albino rat

High alcohol/sucrose consumption during dark circadian phase in C57BL/6J mice: involvement of hippocampus, lateral septum and urocortin-positive cells of the Edinger-Westphal nucleus

“…Connections between VTA and EW have also been shown (Hogg 1966;Breen et al 1983). However, the cFos response in VTA is different from other brain regions.…”

Axosomatic synapses of the rat ciliary ganglion

“…The structural simplicity of this ganglion permits a complete description of both the pre-and postsynaptic components of a localized and specific subset of synaptic connections. Brain stem preganglionic neurons project axons, within the oculomotor nerve, to form the only known source of presynaptic input to the dendrites and cell bodies of the ciliary ganglion neurons (Hogg, 1964;Wigston 1983; Landis et 6 1996 WILEY-LISS. INC. al., 1987;Klooster et al, 1993).…”

Development of the amphibian oculomotor complex: Evidences for migration of oculomotor motoneurons across the midline

“…1983; in birds: Heaton and Wayne 1983; in reptiles: Barbas-Henry and Lohman 1988; in anurans: Matesz and Sz6k61y 1977;in urodeles: Naujoks-Manteuffel et al 1986; in elasmobranchs: Graf and Brunken 1984;Rosties and Leonard 1980;in teleosts : Luiten and DijkstraDe Vlieger 1978;in lampreys: Fritzsch et al 1990). Ontogenetic studies in birds and mammals with non-experimental material and Golgi-studies suggest that oculomotor motoneurons innervating the superior rectus muscle apparently travel to the contralateral side from an initially ipsilateral position with respect to the oculomotor nerve and extraocular muscle (Biondi 1910;Hogg 1966;Puelles-Lopez et al 1975;Puelles and Privat 1977;Sohal 1977;Puelles 1978;Heaton 1981). With tracing techniques we could corroborate the suggestion of motoneuron migration in the oculomotor system of salamanders, whereas recent investigations in a frog (Matesz 1989(Matesz , 1990 did not support a migration.…”
