Table 2.

Adult expression of 59 gene markers across the ventrodorsal subdivisions of the lateral hypothalamus (LH) and their correlation with basal and alar subdivisions of the peduncular hypothalamus (PHy). Color-coded entries represent large subpopulations of positive cells for the indicated markers at the specified LH sectors. The gray boxes represent less numerous positive perifornical subpopulations at the indicated loci. Sparse positive cells, such as Otp-positive cells within adult sectors LH7–LH9, are not shown. Some markers are selectively expressed at the indicated embryonic stages rather than in the adult. Correlation of LH sectors to ventrodorsal progenitor areas of PHy is marked at the top. PPaD/TOH, dorsal peduncular paraventricular/telencephalo-opto-hypothalamic domain; PPaC, central peduncular paraventricular domain; PPaV, ventral peduncular paraventricular domain; PSPa, peduncular subparaventricular domain; PRM, periretromamillary domain; RM, retromamillary domain; RTuD, dorsal retrotuberal domain; RTuI, intermediate retrotuberal domain; RTuV, ventral retrotuberal domain
