  • Title: [Projections of the somatosensory areas of the cerebral cortex into the thalamic nuclei].
    Author: Eliseeva ZV, Durinian RA.
    Journal: Biull Eksp Biol Med; 1975 Oct; 80(10):113-7. PubMed ID: 1227606.
    Abstract:
    Results of morphological studies of degenerated fibers indicated that the first somatosensory area of the cortex was connected by the descending cortico-thalamic fibers with the posterior ventral nucleus of the thalamus. The second somatosensory area was simultaneously connected with the caudal portion of the posterior ventral nucleus and with the nuclei of the posterior group of the thalamus. The mentioned cortico-thalamic connections were distributed by the somatotopic principle.
