No. of bitstreams: 1 RaissaRL.pdf: 2340483 bytes, checksum: 4de24714e54fd592ed6bcfc320e45daf (MD5) Previous issue date: 2008-10-30 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior / The retinal projections in mammals usually reach, classically, three major functional systems: the primary visual system, the accessory optic system, and the circadian timing system. But the retinal projections also reach areas classically considered non-visual, one of which groups the neurons of the zona incerta (ZI), target this study. The primary visual system includes thalamic lateral geniculate complex is formed by the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus, intergeniculate leaflet and the ventral lateral geniculate nucleus and other Components. The accessory optic system is composed of the small nuclei: nuclei terminal dorsal, lateral, medial and the interstitial nucleus of the superior posterior fasciculus. These nuclei are involved in visuo-motor activities. The circadian timing system is comprised of the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus, that act as master circadian pacemaker, entraining pathways and efferents pathways to the efectors, and the intergeniculate leaflet, that seems to act as a modulator of the pacemaker. The retinal projections too reach classically considered non-visual areas, including the zona incerta. This region is localized in the ventral thalamus and has been implicated in various functional properties including nociceptive and somatosensory processing, motor response, sociosexual behaviour, feeding and drinking, in symptoms of neurodegenerative diseases, arousal and attention. It also displays connection with several areas of central nervous system. The aim of this study was characterize the retinal projection in the zona incerta of Callithrix jacchus (sag?i), a primate of the New World through the anterograde axonal transport of the cholera toxin subunit b and analyze the citoarchicteture using Nissl and NeuN, and neurochemical substances such as serotonin, GABA, VIP, VP, GFAP and binding-calcium proteins. The zona incerta showed a different division of the literature in citoarquitetura, both by means of Nissl as neurochemical by NeuN, with a subdivision ventrolateral and dorsomedial. The neurochemical to the other substances corroborate with this subdivision. The GFAP was almost completely negative for the zona incerta, result non evidenced in previous studies yet. The 16 retinal projection in sag?i, unlike other primates and rodents, reached the caudal portion only. This work helps to make further studies are conducted based on this subdivision and the localization of the neurochemical substances associated with possible behaviors that the zona incerta is involved / As proje??es retinianas em mam?feros costumam ser agrupadas, classicamente, em tr?s grandes sistemas funcionais: O sistema visual prim?rio, o sistema ?ptico acess?rio e o sistema de temporiza??o circadiana. Por?m as proje??es retinianas tamb?m alcan?am locais considerados como classicamente n?o-visuais, um dos quais agrupa os neur?nios da zona incerta (ZI), alvo deste estudo. O sistema visual prim?rio inclui o complexo geniculado lateral tal?mico formado pelo n?cleo geniculado lateral dorsal, o folheto intergeniculado e o n?cleo geniculado lateral ventral, al?m de outros componentes. O sistema ?ptico acess?rio ? formado por pequenos n?cleos: n?cleos terminais dorsal, lateral, medial e o n?cleo intersticial do fasc?culo posterior superior. Estes n?cleos participam da atividade v?suo-motora. O sistema de temporiza??o circadiana ? composto pelo n?cleo supraquiasm?tico do hipot?lamo, tido como principal marcapasso circadiano, vias sincronizadoras e vias de sa?da aos efetores, e o folheto intergeniculado, que parece agir como modulador do marcapasso. As proje??es retinianas tamb?m alcan?am ?reas classicamente n?o-visuais, entre elas, a zona incerta. Esta regi?o est? localizada no t?lamo ventral e tem sido implicada em v?rias propriedades funcionais incluindo processamento somatosens?rio e nociceptivo, resposta motora, comportamento s?cio-sexual, de comer e beber, em sintomas de doen?as neurodegenerativas, despertar e aten??o. Apresenta tamb?m conex?o com diversas ?reas do sistema nervoso central proporcionando a esta regi?o a associa??o com diversas fun??es. O objetivo neste trabalho foi caracterizar a proje??o retiniana no Callithrix jacchus (sag?i), um primata do Novo Mundo, atrav?s do tra?ador anter?grado a unidade B da toxina col?rica, bem como analisar a citoarquitetura, utilizando o Nissl e NeuN, e a neuroqu?mica com subst?ncias neuroativas como a serotonina, o GABA, o VIP, VP, al?m de GFAP e prote?nas ligantes de c?lcio. A zona incerta apresentou uma divis?o diferenciada da presente na literatura na citoarquitetura, tanto pelo m?todo de Nissl como neuroqu?mico por NeuN, com uma subdivis?o ventrolateral e dorsomedial. A neuroqu?mica para as outras 14 subst?ncias corrobora com essa divis?o. O GFAP foi quase em completo negativo para a ZI, resultado este ainda n?o evidenciado em trabalhos anteriores. A proje??o retiniana no sag?i, diferentemente de outros primatas, e roedores, alcan?ou a por??o caudal somente. Este trabalho contribui para que novos estudos sejam realizados tomando por base essa subdivis?o bem como a localiza??o das subst?ncias neuroativas associadas a poss?veis comportamentos em que a zona incerta esteja envolvida

Studies usingneural tracers technics have allowed identify a complex connectional map including the ZI. Futhermore, cytochemical, molecular and functional data have shown abundant variability in the neurochemical contend in the ZI, as well as,the involvement of the ZI in the modulation of nociception, attention, alertness, control and maintenance of posture and control of visceral activity. This work aims to characterize the cytoarchitecture, neurochemical content of the ZI in the rock cavy (Kerodon rupestris), and a direct retinal-ZI pathway present in this species. The Nissl staining is effective for the delineation and characterization of ZI citoarchitecture. ZIc receives a contralateral retinal projection showing varicosities, suggesting a modulatory character of photic information. The ZI in the rock cavy, as in others rodents and primates, is characterized by a complex neurochemical signature. The ZI neurochemistry presents great diversity, especially in the medial portion of ZIr, where we have found immunoreactivity of all neuroactive substances investigated, and that NOS-IR, GFAP and CR helped the delimitation of middle ZI in ZId and ZIv. Nevertheless, just 5-HT-IR fibers are present in all subdivisions of the ZI. These data demonstrate the great wealth of the neurochemistry of rock cavy s ZI and a direct retinal modulation in the ZI, helping to explain it s broad functional repertory / A Zona Incerta (ZI) ? um grupamento neuronal embriologicamente derivado do t?lamo ventral, em continuidade com o n?cleo reticular do t?lamo. Diversos estudos com tra?adores retr?grados e anter?grados revelaram a conex?o da ZI com diversas estruturas do sistema nervoso central. Dados moleculares e citoqu?micos revelaram que a ZI ? um dos grupamentos neuronais com maior diversidade neuroqu?mica e citoarquitet?nica do dienc?falo, e estudos hodol?gicos e neuroqu?micos permitiram considerar o envolvimento da ZI em diversas fun??es, as quais se destacam a nocicep??o, aten??o, estado de alerta, controle e manuten??o da postura e controle da atividade visceral. Este trabalho tem por objetivo caracterizar a citoarquitetura e o conte?do neuroqu?mico da ZI do moc? (Kerodon rupestris), bem como a afer?ncia ?ptica presente neste n?cleo nesta esp?cie. A t?cnica de Nissl ? eficiente para a delimita??o e caracteriza??o citoarquitet?nica da ZI do moc?; A ZIc recebe proje??o da retina contralateral, apresentando fibras Classe II ou modulator, sugerindo um car?ter modulat?rio da informa??o f?tica; A ZI do moc?, assim como em outros roedores e primatas, ? caracterizada por uma complexa rede neuroqu?mica, sobretudo na por??o medial da ZIr, onde encontramos imunorreatividade de todas as subst?ncias neuroativas investigadas, al?m de que A IR-NOS, GFAP e CR auxiliaram a delimita??o da ZI no n?vel m?dio em ZId e ZIv. Contudo, somente fibras IR 5-HT est?o presentes em todas as subdivis?es da ZI. Esses dados demonstram a grande riqueza neuroqu?mica da ZI do moc?, auxiliando para explicar o envolvimento em um amplo repertorio funcional
