Cortical projections to the thalamus arise from corticothalamic (CT) neurons in layer 6 and
pyramidal tract-type (PT) neurons in layer 5B. We dissected the excitatory synaptic …

Corticothalamic (CT) neurons in layer 6 constitute a large but enigmatic class of cortical
projection neurons. How they are integrated into intracortical and thalamo-cortico-thalamic …

We now know that sensory processing in cortex occurs not only via direct communication
between primary to secondary areas, but also via their parallel cortico-thalamo-cortical (ie …

Although corticothalamic neurons (CThNs) represent the largest source of synaptic input to
thalamic neurons, their role in regulating thalamocortical interactions remains incompletely …

In primates, multiple corticospinal projections from the sensorimotor cortex operate in
concert to regulate voluntary action. We examined the soma distributions of all those …

The objective of this study was to identify the components involved in a local synaptic circuit
in the mouse cerebral cortex. The local axon collaterals of corticothalamic (CT) projection …

To study the cells of origin of corticothalamic inputs to the ventral posterior and posterior
medial nuclei of the somatosensory thalamus in rats, we injected small aliquots of tracer into …

The aim of this study was to examine the arborisations and terminations of individual
thalamocortical axons in the motor system of the rat. Small, extracellular injections of an …

This study examined the morphology of thalamocortical neurons projecting to the primary
somatosensory cortex (SI; hand region of areas 3a, 3b, 1, and 2) and their relationship to the …

Six injections (∼ 1 mm in diameter) of biotinylated dextran amine (BDA) were placed in
different locations of the primary motor cortex of the rhesus monkey. Anterograde and …
