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.

Paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus	Bed nuclei of the stria terminalis, anterior division, subcommisural zone	strong	not known	CTB	The paraventricular thalamic nucleus provided the major input (Figs. 4E�I, 5D�F), whereas the central medial, intermediodorsal, and reuniens nuclei contributed to a lesser extent (Fig. 4H,I). Collator note: the authors subdivide PVT in an anterior, medial and posterior part, but do not provide any grounds for this subdivision. See Atlas Levels 22-27.
