Rat supratrigeminal nucleus (Vsup) could be cytoarchitectonically identified.
•
Location of Vsup in the present study was different from that in earlier rat studies.
•
Vsup received many terminals of primary afferents innervating jaw-closing muscles.
•
Vsup neurons are possibly arranged with loose somatotopy.
•
Vsup was also identified by masseter nerve stimulation or passive jaw-opening.
