39548 Anterior hypothalamic posterior partPrecommissural nucleus moderateCTB
...at the anterior hypothalamic level, the rostral pole of the anterior hypothalamic nucleus presented a dense cluster of retrogradely labeled cells distributed in a region that seems to overlap with a territory known to contain large numbers of neurons expressing enkephalin (Harlan et al., 1987), whereas the caudal two-thirds of the nucleus contained relatively sparse numbers of marked cells (Fig. 3D–I).
Canteras N.S & Goto M., 1999
General description technique/protocol: In four experiments, the deposit of the tracer appeared to be fairly confined to the PRC. The appearance of a representative CTb injection site in the PRC is shown in Figure 2....The results of this experiment are described in detail, because the injection site virtually was confined to the PRC and, at the same time, involved most of the nucleus.
