Abstract

Dissection of the neural circuits of the cerebral cortex is essential for studying mechanisms underlying brain function. Herein, combining a retrograde rabies tracing system with fluorescent micro-optical sectional tomography, we investigated long-range input neurons of corticotropin-releasing hormone containing neurons in the six main cortical areas, including the prefrontal, somatosensory, motor, auditory, and visual cortices. The whole brain distribution of input neurons showed similar patterns to input neurons distributed mainly in the adjacent cortical areas, thalamus, and basal forebrain. Reconstruction of continuous three-dimensional datasets showed the anterior and middle thalamus projected mainly to the rostral cortex whereas the posterior and lateral projected to the caudal cortex. In the basal forebrain, immunohistochemical staining showed these cortical areas received afferent information from cholinergic neurons in the substantia innominata and lateral globus pallidus, whereas cholinergic neurons in the diagonal band nucleus projected strongly to the prefrontal and visual cortex. Additionally, dense neurons in the zona incerta and ventral hippocampus were found to project to the prefrontal cortex. These results sho...Continue Reading
