dorso-lateralright hemisphere110As the cell group continues caudally, it extends toward the fornix to form a perifornical cluster (Bregma -3.5). Collator note: data collated from Figure 3D. Bregma level: -3.70, rat brain atlas Swanson 1992. The LHA population of MCH neurons may be subdivided in two groups, according to this atlas plate: one dorsal, at the border with zona incerta and one around the fornix.Broberger C., De Lecea L., Sutcliffe J.G. & Hokfelt T., 1998

centralright hemisphere40Collator note: Figure 2a page 5, which corresponds to Atlas Level 31, Swanson 1992.. The MCH-positive neurons are concentrated around the fornix, with a tail towards the cerebral penducles. This experiment replicates the findings of Broberger et al. 1998.Abrahamson E.E. & Moore R.Y., 2001
