The basal forebrain is critically involved in functions representing the highest levels of
integration. Only recently has a relatively clear anatomical picture of this important area …

The VTA contains the A10 group of DA containing neurons. These neurons have been
grouped into nuclei to be found on the floor of the midbrain tegmentum—Npn, Nif, Npbp and …

The present edition of The Human Central Nervous System differs considerably from its
predecessors. In previous editions, the text was essentially confined to a section dealing …

Ascending projections from the caudal (general-visceroceptive) part of the nucleus of the
solitary tract (NTS) were studied experimentally in the rat by the aid of the anterograde …

The efferent, afferent and intrinsic connections of the septal region have been analyzed in
the rat with the autoradiographic method. The lateral septal nucleus, which can be divided …

As implied by its name, the parahippocampal region (PHR), by some authors also named
the retrohippocampal area, is a brain area that lies adjacent to the hippocampal formation. It …

The tuberomammillary nucleus (TMN) is the major source of histaminergic innervation of the
mammalian brain and is thought to play a major role in regulating wake–sleep states. We …

The efferent connections of the medial (MHb) and lateral (LHb) habenular nuclei in the rat
were demonstrated autoradiographically following small injections of tritiated amino acids …

The ventral pallidum (VP) plays a critical role in the processing and execution of motivated
behaviors. Yet this brain region is often overlooked in published discussions of the …

The axonal projections of the ventral subiculum to the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis
(BST) were examined in the rat with the anterograde neuronal tracer Phaseolus vulgaris …
