Connections of the superior paraolivary nucleus of the rat: II. Reciprocal connections with the tectal longitudinal column

The superior paraolivary nucleus (SPON), a prominent GABAergic center of the mammalian auditory brainstem, projects to the ipsilateral inferior colliculus (IC) and sends axons through the commissure of the IC (CoIC). Herein we demonstrate that the SPON is reciprocally connected with the recently dis...
