Abstract:
Three anterograde tracers (PHA-L, WGA-HRP, BDA) placed in the most dorsomedial segment of the anterior part of the nucleus reticularis thalami (NRT) in the Rhesus monkey combined with postembedding immunoctochemistry with anti-GABA antibody resulted in double labeling of a distinct population of synaptic boutons in the thalamic nuclei of the anterior group as well as laterodorsal and mediodorsal nuclei. EM analysis of the labeled terminals in the anteroventral and anteromedial parts of the anterior nuclear complex showed that the NRT input is distributed diffusely and in equal proportion to the dendrites of projection and local circuit neurons.
