Schematic drawings of four different slices showing the location of retrogradely-labeled neurons (red dots) in different brain regions from neonatal rats injected with rhodamine beads into cNTS. Note that the microinjection site of rhodamine beads is represented in schema 4A. The schematic drawings are taken from Paxinos and Watson (1997). Each red dot represents a distinct neuron loaded with fluorescent rhodamine. Amb/RVL/CVL: ambiguus nucleus/rostroventrolateral reticular nucleus/caudoventrolateral reticular nucleus; AP: area postrema; B4: B4 serotonin cells; Bötz: Bötzinger complex; IO: inferior olive; IRt: intermediate reticular nucleus; LC: locus coeruleus; cNTS: caudal nucleus tractus solitarius; Py: pyramidal tract; SubC: subcoeruleus; sp5: spinal trigeminal tract.
