Journal Article
Striatal input from the ventrobasal complex of the rat thalamus
2001
Overview
We have analyzed whether caudal regions of the caudate putamen receive direct projections from thalamic sensory relay nuclei such as the ventrobasal complex. To this aim, the delivery of the retrograde neuroanatomical tracer Fluoro-Gold into the caudal caudate putamen resulted in the appearance of retrogradely labeled neurons in the ventral posteromedial and ventral posterolateral thalamic nuclei. These projections were further confirmed with injections of the anterograde tracers biotinylated dextran amine or Phaseolus vulgaris leucoagglutinin into these thalamic nuclei, by showing the existence of axonal terminal fields located in the caudal striatum. These results support the existence of direct projections linking the thalamic ventrobasal complex and the caudal striatum in the rat, probably via collateralization of thalamocortical axons when passing through the caudate putamen, and therefore supporting the putative involvement of the caudal striatum in sensory-related functions.
