| rostro-caudal | bilateral | exists | ...we observed a group of neuropeptide Y mRNA-expressing neurons restricted to the septohippocampal nucleus (Fig. 5). Only isolated perikarya were observed in surrounding areas. At caudal levels, neuropeptide Y mRNA labeling extends as a thin layer of cells adjacent to the septofimbrial nucleus, presumably marking the caudal end of the septohippocampal nucleus. Hybridization signal was fairly weak rostrally in the nucleus, and becomes more dense caudally. | Risold P.Y. & Swanson L.W., 1997 | Metadata |
