a Gene expression domains defining non-overlapping LS territories. In situ hybridization data were annotated from mouse.brain-map.org and mapped at the level of four LS coronal planes (+1.1, +0.62, +0.38 and −0.1 mm from Bregma). b Principal LS territories defined by their descending projections. cLS: caudal, rdLS: rostrodorsal, rvLS: rostroventral, vLS: ventral, SF: septofimbrial nucleus, SH: septohippocampal nucleus. Summary of projection domains described by Risold and Swanson (1997b). 1: LS49, 2: LS36, 3: LS27, 4: LS17, 5: LS61, 6: LS40, 7: LS30, 8: LSRS, 9: LS53 and 10: LS50 (also called LS51). AHA: anterior hypothalamic area, DBN: diagonal band nucleus, LHA: lateral hypothalamic area, LPOA: lateral preoptic area, MPOA: medial preoptic area, MS: medial septum, Pe: periventricular nucleus, SuM: supramammillary nucleus.
