41220 Retrochiasmatic areaMedial preoptic nucleus medial part lightPHAL
Proceeding rostrally, a small contingent of ascending fibers from the RCHb projects to the preoptic region, providing sparse inputs to the preoptic periventricular nucleus, suprachiasmatic preoptic nucleus, anteroventral periventricular nucleus and medial part of the medial preoptic nucleus (Fig. 2A).

General description technique/protocol: In five experiments, the PHA-L injection labeled neurons confined almost entirely to the RCHb, immediately in front of the arcuate nucleus, underneath the third ventricle. In all of these cases, a very similar pattern of anterogradely labeled fibers was observed. The appearance and location of PHA-L-labeled cells for a representative injection are shown in Fig. 1. Collator note: the injection appears to be made at Atlas Level 25, Swanson rat brain atlas.
