Anatomical organization of genetically-defined prefrontal projections to sensory cortices
Felix Jung, Loran Heymans, Xiao Cao, Marie Carlén · FENS Forum 2024
The mouse prefrontal cortex (PFC) is an umbrella term for rostrally located neocortical brain regions. The anterior cingulate, pre- and infralimbic, orbital, agranular insular and secondary motor cortices are generally included in the PFC. The PFC is critically involved in the acquisition and expression of flexible behavioral responses to changing sensory information, and prefrontal signalling to (neocortical) sensory regions is assumed to be essential to these processes.In the present study, we characterized the anatomical organization of excitatory, prefrontal projections to neocortical sens
