Fig. 13.1 Retrogradely labeled entire hypoglossal nucleus motoneurons on the left and only the

dorsal subdivision of the nerve intact on the right . Cells are seen 600 m m rostral to the internal

obex in ( a ), at the internal obex in ( b ), and 600 m m to the internal obex in ( c ). The dorsal subgroup

is surrounded by the thick line and includes motoneurons supplying the styloglossus (SG), hyoglossus

(HG), and the inferior (Inf) and superior (Sup) longitudinal (long) intrinsic tongue muscle

fi bers. The ventral subgroup is surrounded by a thin line and includes motoneurons supplying the

genioglossus (GG), and the vertical (vert) and transverse (trans) intrinsic tongue muscle fi bers. The

geniohyoid (GH) motoneurons are located in the lateral accessory subgroup. CC central canal.

Scale bar = 100 m m for ( a ), ( b ), and ( c )
