Abstract
Afferent connections of the nucleus lateralis posterior (NLP) of the thalamus and area 7 of the parietal cortex with the retrosplenial region of the limbic cortex and hippocampus were studied in rats with retrograde axon transport of horseradish peroxidase. It was shown that the NLP receives ipsilateral projections from area 29d neurons, while area 7 receives ipsilateral axons from area 29d and 29c neurons. It was found that associations of the retrosplenial region with associative cortex are far more pronounced than with associative thalamus. Moreover, the afferent connections of area 7 with area 29d are more numerous than with area 29c. We disclosed no projections of areas 29a and 29b to thalamoparietal system structures. In addition to neocortical input from the limbic cortex, area 7 receives afferent fibers from the archicortex; neurons situated in hippocampus area CA1 are the source of these projections.
