ANT = anterior nuclei; IL = intralaminar nuclei; LGN = lateral geniculate nucleus; MD = mediodorsal nucleus; PUL = pulvinar; Ret = reticular nucleus VA = ventral anterior nucleus; VL = ventral lateral nucleus; VP = ventral posterior nucleus.
Results from previous studies that examined neurogenesis of the LGN and PUL, respectively (Rakic 1977a; Ogren and Rakic 1981). In addition, positive labeling was observed at E36 in the LGN and at E36 and E45 in the PUL.
