70607 Infralimbic areaSupraoptic nucleus moderatePHAL
Labelled fibers coursed along the dorsolateral border of the supraoptic nucleus (Fig. 3C,D). A few medium caliber fibers with occasional varicosities entered the nucleus and distributed themselves amongst the most peripherally located magnocellular neurons. These regions of termination were concentrated in the more lateral aspects of the nucleus. In addition, a few smooth labelled fibers were seen within the ipsilateral optic tract. These labelled fibers then ran directly into the supraoptic nucleus where they branched and demonstrated varicosities along their lengths. These fibers did not proceed very far into the nucleus, but appeared to maintain a close association with the optic tract. Coillator note: Swanson Atlas Levels 24-27. The pattern of terminals of SO is complex enough to support a possible remapping of SO.

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.
