Figure 6. Correspondence between projection patterns within LGd and SCs from Cre expressing RGCs.

Figure 6

(a) Subdivisions of the LGd and SCs. Contralateral projections from Kcng4 Cre (salmon) and Cart-Tg1-Cre (light pink) RGCs are shown in three coronal views on the rostral-caudal axis, along with ipsilateral projections mapped from a mouse injected with CTB in the opposite eye (cyan). These datasets were used to delineate the borders between each subdivision in the LGd. (b) Summary of the LGd and SCs projection patterns observed for all Cre lines. (c,d) Example images near the rostral-caudal midpoint through LGd (c) and SCs (d) from lines that differed in their laminar distribution of labeled terminals. Dashed lines in (c) show the border between shell and core regions. zo, zonal layer; sg, superficial gray layer; op, optic layer; ip, ipsilateral zone of LGd.
