70576 Infralimbic areaNucleus accumbens very strongPHAL
The nucleus accumbens (Fig. 3A) exhibited numerous fascicles of labelled fibers that followed a diagonal trajectory across the nucleus from dorsomedial to ventrolateral. Fine and medium caliber individual labelled fibers branched profusely, exhibiting numerous boutons along their lengths. Collator note: Fig. 3A corresponds to Swanson Atlas Levels 14-15 (lot as a fiducial point). The labeled fibers and terminal fields appear to extend into the fundus of striatum, but seem to avoid the SI (notice the specific shape of the unlabeled tissue, ventral to ACb and dorsal to OT), at least at this level.

General description technique/protocol: Collator note: Case R651, the injection covers ILA (ILC as in this reference and the dorsal peduncular cortex) with small extension in the ventral prelimbic cortex, the medial orbital cortex rostrally, and ventrally possible spill in the dorsal part of the TT. The injection is shown in Figure 1B and it was mapped by us on Levels 9-10, Swanson-2004 Atlas.
