Overall, the highest (> 140 < 200 fmol/mg wet tissue weight) HA binding densities were shown to be typical of rostral areas such as the preoptic nucleus (NPO) as well as the toms longitudinalis (TLo) and SGC of midbrain regions, whereas lower (> 70 < 110 fmol/mg wet tissue weight) binding densities were reported for the central nucleus of the ventral telencephalon and molecular stratum of the cerebellum. In 1969, Rakic and his coworkers first used brain slices from human fetuses--obtained following second-trimester death--to identify remnants of a stream of neurons that traveled from the telencephalon to the thalamus. Other appendixes provide standard dermatome maps, muscle action and innervation charts, clinical cerebrospinal fluid values, a cranial nerve function and clinical signs chart, and a table of basic functions of the diencephalon and telencephalon. |
