Abstract Background: The orexins (hypocretins) are a family of peptides found primarily in neurons in the lateral hypothalamus. Although the orexinergic system is generally thought to be the same across species, the orexins are involved in behaviors which show considerable interspecific variability. There are few direct cross-species comparisons of the distributions of cells and fibers containing these peptides. Here, we addressed the possibility that there might be important species differences by systematically examining and directly comparing the distribution of orexinergic neurons and fibers within the forebrains of species with very different patterns of sleep-wake behavior.

  • Projections of the Paraventricular and Paratenial Nuclei of the Dorsal Midline Thalamus in the Rat
    THE JOURNAL OF COMPARATIVE NEUROLOGY 508:212–237 (2008) Projections of the Paraventricular and Paratenial Nuclei of the Dorsal Midline Thalamus in the Rat ROBERT P. VERTES* AND WALTER B. HOOVER Center for Complex Systems and Brain Sciences, Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton, Florida 33431 ABSTRACT The paraventricular (PV) and paratenial (PT) nuclei are prominent cell groups of the midline thalamus. To our knowledge, only a single early report has examined PV projections and no previous study has comprehensively analyzed PT projections. By using the antero- grade anatomical tracer, Phaseolus vulgaris leucoagglutinin, and the retrograde tracer, FluoroGold, we examined the efferent projections of PV and PT. We showed that the output of PV is virtually directed to a discrete set of limbic forebrain structures, including ‘limbic’ regions of the cortex. These include the infralimbic, prelimbic, dorsal agranular insular, and entorhinal cortices, the ventral subiculum of the hippocampus, dorsal tenia tecta, claustrum, lateral septum, dorsal striatum, nucleus accumbens (core and shell), olfactory tubercle, bed nucleus of stria terminalis (BST), medial, central, cortical, and basal nuclei of amygdala, and the suprachiasmatic, arcuate, and dorsomedial nuclei of the hypothalamus. The posterior PV distributes more heavily than the anterior PV to the dorsal striatum and to the central and basal nuclei of amygdala. PT projections significantly overlap with those of PV, with some important differences. PT distributes less heavily than PV to BST and to the amygdala, but much more densely to the medial prefrontal and entorhinal cortices and to the ventral subiculum of hippocampus. As described herein, PV/PT receive a vast array of afferents from the brainstem, hypothalamus, and limbic forebrain, related to arousal and attentive states of the animal, and would appear to channel that information to structures of the limbic forebrain in the selection of appropriate responses to changing environmental conditions.

J. MOGENSON, L. W. SWANSON,’ AND M. WU Department of Physiology, University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario, Canada N6A 5Cl and The Salk Institute, San Diego, California 92138 Received April 12, 1982; Revised July 21, 1982; Accepted July 26, 1982 Abstract The anatomical organization and electrophysiological characteristics of a projection from the nucleus accumbens to anteroventral parts of the globus pallidus and to a subpallidal region that includes the substantia innominata (SI), the lateral preoptic area (LPO), and anterior parts of the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) were investigated in the rat. Autoradiographic experiments, with injections of 3H-proline into different sites in the nucleus accumbens and adjacent caudoputamen, indicate that the descending fibers are organized topographically along both mediolateral and dorsoventral gradients, although labeled fibers from adjacent regions of the nucleus accumbens overlap considerably in the ventral globus pallidus and subpallidal region. Injections confined to the caudoputaman only labeled fibers in the globus pallidus. Retrograde transport experiments with the marker true blue confirmed that only the nucleus accumbens projects to the subpallidal region and that the caudoputamen projects upon the glubus pallidus in a topographically organized manner. In electrophysiological recording experiments single pulse stimulation (0.1 to 0.7 mA; 0.15 msec duration) of the nucleus accumbens changed the discharge rate of single neurons in the ventral globus pallidus and in the SI, LPO, and LHA.

    White Matter Anatomy What the Radiologist Needs to Know Victor Wycoco, MBBS, FRANZCRa, Manohar Shroff, MD, DABR, FRCPCa,*, Sniya Sudhakar, MBBS, DNB, MDb, Wayne Lee, MSca KEYWORDS Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) White matter tracts Projection fibers Association Fibers Commissural fibers KEY POINTS Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has emerged as an excellent tool for in vivo demonstration of white matter microstructure and has revolutionized our understanding of the same. Information on normal connectivity and relations of different white matter networks and their role in different disease conditions is still evolving. Evidence is mounting on causal relations of abnormal white matter microstructure and connectivity in a wide range of pediatric neurocognitive and white matter diseases. Hence there is a pressing need for every neuroradiologist to acquire a strong basic knowledge of white matter anatomy and to make an effort to apply this knowledge in routine reporting.

In this contribution the thalamus is regarded as an important place of interaction between the input and the output organization of the basal ganglia. In support of this idea, a brief overview is provided of some of the most recent findings concerning the thalamus in relation to the basal ganglia circuitry. In particular, we have focused on the thalamostriatal projections themselves, on the output of the basal ganglia to the thalamus and also on the overlapping territories between the thalamic projection of the output nuclei and the thalamostriatal neurons. These data support the existence of several thalamic feedback circuits within the basal ganglia neural system. Finally, some considerations are provided upon the functional significance of these thalamic feedback circuits in the overall organization of the basal ganglia.

  • Afferents to the Central Nucleus of the Amygdala And
    Brain Research 887 (2000) 157±173 www.elsevier.com/locate/bres Research report Afferents to the central nucleus of the amygdala and functional subdivisions of the periaqueductal gray: neuroanatomical substrates for affective behavior Jamespaul Paredes, Ray W. Winters, Neil Schneiderman, Philip M. McCabe* Department of Psychology, University of Miami, P.O. Box 248185, Coral Gables, FL 33124, USA Accepted 19 September 2000 Abstract Evidence suggests the periaqueductal gray (PAG) is involved in the integration of behavioral and autonomic components of affective behavior. Our laboratory has shown that electrical stimulation of the ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (vl PAG) versus the dorsolateral periaqueductal gray (dl PAG), in the rabbit, elicits two distinct behavioral/cardiorespiratory response patterns. Furthermore, evidence suggests that the amygdaloid central nucleus (ACe) may in¯uence cardiovascular activity during emotional states. The purpose of this study was to delineate the topography and determine the origin of forebrain projections to the PAG and the ACe, as well as commonalties and differences in the pattern of afferents. Examination of common afferents may lend insights into their function as components of a forebrain system regulating autonomic activity during emotional states. Separate retrograde tracers were injected into functional subdivisions of the PAG and the ACe in rabbits. PAG injections led to neuronal labeling in numerous cortical regions including the ipsilateral medial prefrontal and insular cortices. Additionally, bilateral labeling was observed in several hypothalamic nuclei including the paraventricular nucleus, the dorsomedial nucleus and the ventromedial nucleus as well as the region lateral to the descending column of the fornix. Sparse labeling was also seen in various basal forebrain regions, thalamic nuclei and amygdaloid nuclei.
