NTS (Nucleus of the solitary tract) projects to MDRN (Medullary reticular nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: anterograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Strength: weak
Evidence: Anterogradely labeled terminals from VNS-TRAPped cNTS neurons were present in the medullary reticular formation, at relatively weak density.
