The oval paracentral nucleus (OPC) was initially isolated from the paracentral nucleus (PC) within the intralaminar thalamic nuclei in rats. We have recently shown that the rat OPC receives proprioceptive inputs from jaw-closing muscle spindles (JCMSs). However, it remains unknown which cortical ...
