	Osteopathy Articles Head Pain Neural Pathways
		Their central processes descend, as the spinal tract of the trigeminal nerve, in the lateral brain stem from the upper pons to the C-2 level of the cord or even somewhat lower, to terminate in the associated spinal trigeminal nucleus which lies adjacent and deep to the tract.
		The spinal tract and the spinal nucleus correspond to and are continuous with the dorsolateral fasciculus of the cord and the substantia gelatinosa respectively.
		The classic view is that the trigeminal lemniscus (combining the ventral and dorsal secondary trigeminal tracts) projects to the medial portion (arcuate nucleus) of the posteroventral nucleus of the thalamus....

		The fibres of cells whose bodies are in the trigeminal ganglion run into the pons via the nervus intermedius where they may enter either the future chief sensory nucleus or turn down in the spinal trigeminal tract and synapse in the nucleus of the spinal trigeminal tract.
		Another group of sensory nerve fibres are the unipolar neurons of the mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus.
		Streeter G.L., (1908b) The nucleus of the mesencephalic tract is present in 27 of 28 embryos studied of this stage.

	Somatosensory pathways from the face
		The spinal nucleus of V can be divided into three regions along its length; the region closest to the mouth is called subnucleus oralis, the middle region is called subnucleus interpolaris, and the region closest to the tail is called subnucleus caudalis.
		The fibers enter the brainstem via a small branch of the trigeminal that bypasses the trigeminal ganglion, turn up towards the mesencephalic nucleus, pass by the cell body, and leave the nucleus immediately.
		The pain fibers actually synapse in subnucleus caudalis, so you may hear that term used instead of the spinal nucleus of V. The secondary afferents from subnucleus caudalis cross to the opposite side, and join the spinothalamic tract on its way to the thalamus.

		The sensory root joins the trigeminal or semilunar ganglion between the layers of the dura mater in a depression on the floor of the middle crania fossa.

	Carbamazepine (PIM 100)
		Its efficacy in neuralgia may result from the reduction of excitatory synaptic transmission in the spinal trigeminal nucleus because it increases the latency of trigeminal neuronal response and decreases the number of neuronal discharges.
		Carbamazepine 10,11-epoxide, the major metabolite of carbamazepine, also has considerable activity against neuralgia.
		Carbamazepine seems to act by reducing polysynaptic responses and blocking post-tetanic potentiation (Drug Facts & Comparisons, 1985).

		The spinal tract and nucleus of the trigeminal nerve (V) are tagged.
		The trigeminal nerve does have a motor (output) component -- the motor nucleus of the trigeminal, which serves head muscles and lies close to the mesencephalic nucleus of V. Incidentally, motor fibers of the trigeminal nerve are found only the mandibular division (3).
		The main trunk of the fibers serving the dorsal division enter and form the bulik of the dorsal part of the spinal cord (the dorsal funiculus); uncrossed, these fibers proceed virtually straight up the spinal cord to the medulla before synapsing in the nucleus gracilis or nucleus cuneatus).

		Some of the sensory fibers of the trigeminal nerve end in this nucleus; but the greater number descend, under the name of the spinal tract of the trigeminal nerve, to end in the substantia gelatinosa of Rolando.
