| Abstract: | The commissural component of the stria terminalis (S. T.) was studied in Equi-Thesin (92.7 mg/kg) anesthetized rats after their exposure in the caudothalamic surface of both hemispheres. Two types of connection between right and left S. T. across the anterior commissure are described: A "direct" connection set up by fibres that run through the S. T. and join the contralateral S. T., and another "indirect" component, formed by cell axons that receive excitatory synaptic contacts from fibres running in the S. T. |
