RetinaAnterior hypothalamic area moderate/strongnot knownCholera toxin conjugated to HRP
Case pg308, fig12,15. Soma notes 2 adult male hooded rats and 5 adult male albino rats were used. each received an injection of CT-HRP into the posterior chamber of the eye.. Terminal notes retinohypothalamic tract 3 components: 2) extension of SCN axonal plexus into the AHA and the RCA. this is sparse rostrally and grows increasingly dense caudally, where it extends to a wide zone caudal to the SCN including AHA and RCA.

RetinaAnterior hypothalamic area moderatenot knownCholera toxin conjugated to HRP
Case pg348,350, fig3k-p. 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 swept dorsally throught the central part of the anterior hypothalamic area where it began to disperse. terminals evident in med. anterior and central anterior hypothalamic areas..

Case pg141, fig1,2. Soma notes Ascending projections were represented not only by neurons of PT, SC the dorsal part of LGB, & VP, but also by cells of the ventrolateral and posterior thalamic nuclei, the ventral part of LGB, zona incerta & anterior hypothalamus (ventral AHA). Terminal notes HRP inj into ventrocaudal zones, --of LP--.

Fluorogold-labeled cells were also very abundant [in LP] and their distribution was similar to that of PHAL-labeled terminal fields (Fig. 6F). Collator note: Swanson Atlas Level 31.

More 17 regions of the lateral posterior nucleus received only a light input, and, correspondingly, only one or two fluorogold labeled cells were observed. Collator note: Swanson Atlas Level 35 (Fig. 6G).
