Figure 6

Schematic diagram of the four neuron types that contribute to corticostriatal projections. Neurons in layer Vb/VI have large caliber axons that project to thalamus, brainstem, and spinal cord, giving off collaterals in striatum. Neurons in layer Va/III project to ipsilateral striatum, contralateral striatum, or both.
