The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between the lateral tegmental field (FTL), a cardioinhibitory area, with other cardioinhibitory areas, i.e., the ambiguus nucleus (NA) and the dorsal motor nucleus of vagus (DMV) and the caudal ventrolateral medulla (CVLM), a vasopressor inhibitory area. In 55 cats anesthetized with chloralose (40 mg/kg) and urethane (400 mg/kg), the cardiovascular responses of heart rate (HR), systemic arterial blood pressure (SAP) and vertebral nerve activity (VNA) were recorded. The FTL, NA, DMV and CVLM were identified first by stimulation (rectangular pulses in 80 Hz, 0.5 ms, 50-100 μA) and then confirmed by microinjection of sodium glutamate (Glu, 0.25M, 70 nl). In studying the influence of NA, DMV, or CVLM lesion on the Gluinduced responses in FTL, kainic acid (KA, 24 mM, 100 nl) was microinjected into the NA, DMV or CVLM. FTL stimulation produced an average decrease of HR by 55 %. After KA lesioning of the ipsilateral NA or the DMV, the decreased HR induced by FTL was significantly diminished. After subsequent lesion of the contralateral DMV or NA, the bradycardia of FTL was abolished. The reduction of resting HR was more intense after lesioning the NA than DMV and with the left side more than that of the right side. These studies suggest that the cardioinhibitory responses of FTL are mediated through both NA and DMV with predominance of the former, while the hypotensive effect of FTL is mediated through CVLM. The precise pathway responsible for the FTL-induced bradycardia and hypotension is to be determined.
