The objective of this study was to examine anatomically the distribution of afferent neurones in the mesencephalic nucleus of the fifth nerve (Mes V). HRP was applied, in separate experiments, to the inferior alveolar, infraorbital, and masseter nerves, and injected into the masseter muscle and periodontal ligament. Following application of HRP to the masseter muscle and masseter nerve, labelled cells were found in the ipsilateral motor nucleus of the fifth nerve and in the ipsilateral Mes V. Labelled cells in Mes V, identified as belonging to proprioceptor afferents from jaw-closing muscles, were distributed throughout the full extent of the nucleus. Following application of HRP to the inferior alveolar nerve, infraorbital nerve, and periodontal ligament, labelled cells were found in the ipsilateral trigeminal ganglion and Mes V, and the latter identified as belonging to periodontal receptor afferents. In contrast to the distribution of spindle afferent somata, they were restricted to the caudal region of Mes V. The differential distribution of afferent neurones within Mes V demonstrated in this study confirms previous electrophysiological findings, and its significance is considered.
