OBJECTIVE To determine the spinal innervation and neuronal connections is important for studying renal metabolic responses.MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, the spinal cords of 10 adult male C57BL/6J strain mice were mapped retrograde using injections of pseudorabies virus (PRV)-614. The virus, injected into the kidney, was specifically transported to the spinal cord.RESULTS At 5 days after injection of the PRV-614, PRV-614-positive cells were found in the intermediolateral cell column, the intercalates nucleus, or the central autonomic nucleus of spinal cord segments T4-L1, and most PRV-614-labeled cells were found in the T9 segment.CONCLUSION Our results revealed neuroanatomical circuits between kidney and the spinal intermediolateral cell column neurons.
