Abstract

The topographical relations among the terminal field of spinothalamic fibers and the cells projecting upon areas 4 and 5 were studied in the anterior intralaminar nuclei of the cat. Terminals anterogradely labeled from the spinal cord and cell populations retrogradely labeled from the lateral pericruciate and anterior suprasylvian cortex were simultaneously observed by means of a multiple fluorescent tracing strategy. The present findings confirm that spinal afferents in the central lateral and paracentral nuclei overlap with the cells projecting to area 4. Further, the present data demonstrate that spinal terminals are largely segregated from the intralaminar cell population projecting to area 5.
