title: Vagal stimulation modifies parameters of heterochromatin in the nuclei of vagosolitary complex neurons of medulla oblongata in rats.
abstract: New data were obtained on modification of heterochromatin parameters in the nuclei of medulla oblongata neurons in Wistar rats after stimulation of the vagus nerve: decrease in the area of heterochromatin regions and redistribution of chromocenters within the neuronal nuclear system. It was concluded that realization of the viscero-visceral reflex is associated with rearrangement of chromatin in neurons involved in transmission of the corresponding information.
