The retrograde transneuronal viral tracing method was used to study the CNS nuclei that innervate the parasympathetic preganglionic neurons controlling the submandibular gland in the rat. A genetically engineered beta-galactosidase expressing Bartha strain of pseudorabies virus (PRV) was injected into the submandibular gland of rats. After 4 days, PRV infected tissues were reacted with the Bluo-Gal substrate (halogenated indolyl-beta-D-galactoside) and labeled cell bodies were identified throughout the brain. In the medulla oblongata, cell body labeling was seen in the superior salivatory nucleus, and throughout the medullary reticular formation as well as in the nucleus of the solitary tract, spinal trigeminal nucleus, and deep cerebellar nuclei. In the pons, PRV labeled neurons were found bilaterally in the locus ceruleus, subceruleus region, and parabrachial complex. In the mesencephalon, labeled cells were found in the Edinger-Westphal nucleus, deep mesencephalic nucleus, and central grey matter. Several hypothalamic regions were labeled including the lateral, perifornical and paraventricular hypothalamic nuclei. In the telencephalon, PRV-positive cell bodies were observed in the substantia innominata, bed nucleus of the stria terminalis and central nucleus of the amygdala. The results suggest that widespread areas of the CNS are involved in control of salivation.
