“…Thus, PVT receives a dense aminergic innervation from the brain stem: adrenergic innervation from the medulla oblongata (Otake and Ruggiero, 1995;Phillipson and Bohn, 1994), noradrenergic fibers from the locus coeruleus (Jones and Yang, 1985;Krout et al, 2002;Vogt et al, 2008), serotonergic innervation from the median and dorsal raphe (Cropper et al, 1984;de Medeiros Silva et al, 2014;Hsu and Price, 2009;Otake and Ruggiero, 1995;Vertes et al, 2010), dopaminergic fibers which derive primarily from cells of the periventricular and posterior hypothalamic areas (García-Cabezas et al, 2007Hökfelt et al, 1976;Otake and Ruggiero, 1995;Takada et al, 1990). The aminergic innervation of PVT includes histaminergic fibers deriving from the tuberomammillary nucleus of the posterior hypothalamus (Airaksinen and Panula, 1988;Airaksinen et al, 1989;Jin et al, 2002;Panula et al, 1989).…”
