Nucleus Septalis Medialis


vasculosum laminae terminalis, and the Nucleus septalis medialis.  

ir-cGnRH II fibers were prominent in limbic structures (cortex piriformis, lateral to nucleus taeniae, hippocampus); olfactory areas (tuberculum olfactorium, nucleus subhabenularis lateralis, nucleus septalis lateralis); areas that in other avian species have steroid-concentrating cells or receptors (medial edge of lobus parolfactorius, Nucleus septalis medialis, nucleus periventricularis magnocellularis, nucleus dorsomedialis posterior thalami); and areas containing ir-GnRH I cells or fibers but not in median eminence.  

Chicken LHRH-I-immunoreactive perikarya were sparsely scattered in the nucleus preopticus periventricularis (POP), nucleus filiformis (FIL) and Nucleus septalis medialis (SM), and in bilateral bands extending from these nuclei into the septal area in both species.  

Adult SHR exhibited lower ACE activity in the Nucleus septalis medialis, the organon subfornicalis, the organon vasculosum laminae terminalis, and the nuclei periventricularis and suprachiasmatis..  

Only cells of the anterior part of AM project fibers to Nucleus septalis medialis.
