38918 Primary somatosensory areaPontine gray strongbiotinylated dextran amine (BDA)
The highest densities of labeling were found in three regions. Two rounded, high-density regions were located close to the ml-50 line on each side of the rc-50 line, and a third band-like, high density region was located caudally and medially (Fig. 7D). A sagitttal view of the reconstruction revealed the rostrocaudal segregation of the high-density regions (Fig. 7E). In a transverse projection, the regions of highest density formed a dorsally located band relatively close to the descending peduncle (Fig. 7F).

38920 Primary somatosensory areaPontine gray moderateHRP/WGA
[...] all labeling was located dorsally, relatively close to the descending fiber tract. In the case that received 10 injections into the SI, two distinct clusters were found centered on the ml-50 line, on each side of the rc-50 line (Fig. 7G).

38921 Primary somatosensory areaPontine gray moderateHRP/WGA
Another solitary cluster was located more rostrally, and two or three clusters were located more caudally.

General description technique/protocol: To first delineate the extent of the complete SI projection to the pontine nuclei, we attempted to inject as much tracer as possible into SI. In one experiment, a total of 20 injections of BDA were placed throughout SI (Fig. 7A–F).
