Retina	Paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus	moderate	not known	Cholera toxin conjugated to HRP	Case pg348, fig2. Soma notes 36 female Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 200-350g. 10 microliters of CT-HRP(.20%-.40%) were injected into one eye ?behind the lens into the vitreous chamber of the eye. pressure injection over 1 min. Terminal notes Medial component of the RHT: a few fibres were seen in the PVN in some rats but this label was not consistently evident.		Levine JD, Weiss ML, Rosenwasser AM, Miselis RR., 1991

Infralimbic area	Lateral hypothalamic area	strong	not known	PHAL	Collator note: PHAL injection in the central part of the PL, Swanson Atlas Levels 9-10. The characteristic shape of the anterior forceps of the claustrum was taken as landmark.	Fisk G.A. & Wyss J.M., 2000
Infralimbic area	Lateral hypothalamic area	moderate	not known	PHAL	[...] principal target was the lateral hypothalamic area, in particular its ventrolateral and perifornical regions (Figs. 3D-G, 5C,D). Although innervation of the anterior part of the lateral hypothalamic area was scant, varicose fibers running in a mediolateral direction were prominent in the retrochiasmatic area.
