    Direct projections of the hypothalamic nuclei to the thalamic mediodorsal nucleus in the cat.

    Abstract

    Direct projections of the hypothalamic nuclei to the thalamic mediodorsal nucleus (MD) were studied using retrograde and anterograde transport of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA)-HRP. HRP and WGA-HRP were injected into the MD, thalamic paraventricular, lateral habenular and hypothalamic nuclei. The results indicate that the MD, particularly its medial part, receives a moderate amount of hypothalamic afferents, and that most of these afferents originate in the medial part of the lateral hypothalamic nucleus at anterior levels, while a limited number are derived from the dorsal, dorsomedial, ventromedial and anterior hypothalamic and lateral preoptic nuclei.
