A: Distribution of
neurotensin-containing fibers/terminals and cholinergic cells at the level of
the posterior part of the crossing of the anterior commissure. B:
Schematic drawing from the same section showing that the ventral part of the
globus pallidus contains a number
of cholinergic projection neurons which are embedded in a heavy neurotensin-containing network. Bar Scale: 500µm. Abbrev. ac = anterior
commissure; CP = caudate putamen; f = fornix; ic = internal capsule; MP =
medial preoptic nucleus; Tu = olfactory tubercle; 3V = third ventricle.
