Estimated densities of synapses expressing PSD95 and/or SAP102 in different regions of the brain. The total densities of puncta per 100 square microns have been calculated from previously published densities of PSD95 and SAP102, as well as their colocalization indexes16. A conversion factor obtained in CA1 was used to estimate the minimum densities of synapses per cubic micron (see text for details). Illustrations and brain regions are based on the Allen Mouse Brain Atlas. The following structures have been labeled: Cerebellum (CBL), CBLCX: cerebellar cortex; DN: Dentate nucleus; IP: Interposed nucleus. Medulla (MD), CO: Cochlear nuclei; PRP: Nucleus prepositus; SPV: Spinal nucleus of the trigeminal; VN: Vestibular nuclei. Midbrain (MB), SN: Substantia nigra. Hypothalamus (HY), ZI: Zona incerta. Thalamus (TH), HA: Habenular nuclei; LG: Lateral geniculate complex; LP: Lateral posterior nucleus; PF: Parafascicular nucleus; PO: Posterior complex; RT: Reticular nucleus; SPF: Suprafascicular nucleus; VM: Ventral medial nucleus; VPL: Ventral posterolateral nucleus; VPM: Ventral posteromedial nucleus. Pallidum, NDB: Diagonal band nucleus; SI: Substantia innominata. Striatum, ACB: Nucleus accumbens; CEA: Central amygdalar nucleus; CP: Caudoputamen; LS: Lateral septal nucleus; MEA: Medial amygdalar nucleus. OT: Olfactory tubercle; SH: septohippocampal nucleus. Cortical subplate, BLA: Basolateral amygdalar nucleus; BMA: Basomedial amygdalar nucleus; CLA: Claustrum; EPd: Endopiriform nucleus, dorsal part; EPv: Endopiriform nucleus, ventral part; LA: Lateral amygdalar nucleus; PA: Posterior amygdalar nucleus. Olfactory areas, AON: Anterior olfactory nucleus; COA: Cortical amygdalar area; PAA: Piriform-amygdalar area; PIR: Piriform area; TR: Postpiriform transition area; TTd: Taenia tecta, dorsal part; TTv: Taenia tecta, ventral part. Hippocampal formation, CA1, CA2, CA3: Cornu Ammonis, fields 1, 2 and 3; DG: Dentate gyrus. ENT: Entorhinal area; SUB: Subiculum. Isocortex, ACAd: Anterior cingulate area, dorsal part; ACAv: Anterior cingulate area, ventral part; AId: Agranular insular area, dorsal part; AIv: Agranular insular area, ventral part; AUD: Auditory areas (d, p, v: dorsal, primary ventral); ECT: Ectorhinal area; GU: Gustatory area; ILA: Infralimbic area; MOp: Primary motor area; MOs: Secondary motor area; ORBl: Orbital area, lateral part; ORBm: Orbital area, medial part; ORBvl: Orbital area, ventrolateral part; PERI: Perirhinal area; PL: Prelimbic area; PTLp: Posterior parietal association areas; RSP: Retrosplenial area; SSp: Primary somatosensory area (bfd, ul m, and n: barrel field, upper limb, mouth and nose representations); TEa: Temporal association areas; VIS: Visual areas (am, p, al: anteromedial, primary, anterolateral).
