Cells of origin of subcortical afferents to the caudate nucleus: a horseradish peroxidase study in the cat

Brain Research
G J Royce

Abstract

The horseradish peroxidase tracing method was used to investigate the sources of subcortical input to the caudate nucleus in the cat. Of considerable interest was the finding, not previously described, that labeled neurons were present outside of the intralaminar complex, in the ventral anterior and mediodorsal thalamic nuclei. Another new finding was that retrogradely labeled cells were present within the basolateral amygdaloid nucleus, following the caudate injections. In addition, neurons containing enzyme granules were found within all of the intralaminar thalamic nuclei, most prominently in the central lateral and centromedian nuclei. Also, HRP-positive cells were strikingly apparent within the ipsilateral pars compacta of the substantia nigra, and a few labeled cells were found in the ipsilateral pars reticularis, and the contralateral pars compacta of the substantia nigra. Cells containing peroxidase granules were also found in the ventral tegmental area and the retrorubral area. The most caudal projection to the caudate nucleus in the cat was demonstrated by labeled neurons found bilaterally in the dorsal nucleus of the mesencephalic raphe.

Amygdala and Midbrain Dopamine

The midbrain dopamine system is widely studied for its involvement in emotional and motivational behavior. Some of these neurons receive information from the amygdala and project throughout the cortex. When the circuit and transmission of dopamine is disrupted symptoms may present. Here is the latest research on the amygdala and midbrain dopamine.

Basal Ganglia

Basal Ganglia are a group of subcortical nuclei in the brain associated with control of voluntary motor movements, procedural and habit learning, emotion, and cognition. Here is the latest research.

Amygdala: Sensory Processes

Amygdalae, nuclei clusters located in the temporal lobe of the brain, play a role in memory, emotional responses, and decision-making. Here is the latest research on sensory processes in the amygdala.
