| GAD67 neuron | Herman et al. (Herman) | Collator note: general population of neurons that expresses GAD67 transporter mRNA, highly indicative of the presence of GABA as neurotransmitter. The associated reference and nomenclature will be changed with accumulation of more data. | includes | | Collator note: GAD65 neurons coexpress perfectly Enk in all anterior divisions of the BST. The second subpopulation of ENK-ir neurons expresses vGLLUT2. | Poulin J-F., Arbour D., Laforest S. & Drolet G. | Mihail Bota |
|
| GAD67 BST-PVN neuron | Herman et al. (Herman) | | synonym | | Collator note: GAD65 neurons coexpress perfectly Enk in all anterior divisions of the BST. GAD BST-PVN neurons of Cullinan & Herman (1993) appear as a subclass of the GABA expressing neurons. | Poulin J-F., Arbour D., Laforest S. & Drolet G. | Mihail Bota |
|
| BST-CG Enk-ir neuron | Gray-Magnuson (G.-M.) | Class of neurons labeled after injection with retrograde tracers in the central gray of the rat (see associated reference) and immunolabeled with ENK antisera. The injections partially cover dorsal raphe, but extend in the ventrolateral part of the PAG. This class will be further refined for more specific injections and labeling patterns. | includes | | Collator note: GAD65 neurons coexpress perfectly Enk in all anterior divisions of the BST. GAD BST-CG ENK-IR neurons of Gray & Magnuson (1992) appear as a subclass of the GABA expressing neurons. | Poulin J-F., Arbour D., Laforest S. & Drolet G. | Mihail Bota |
