Table 1 Whole-brain projection patterns and degrees in Rbp4-Cre (L5) and Ntsr1-Cre (L6) mice.

From: Comparative three-dimensional connectome map of motor cortical projections in the mouse brain

  1. Averaged projection signals (n = 5 brains per kind) after being normalized by infected cells were used to determine how much of the area of each anatomical region of interest (ROI) is occupied by the signal, termed as projection degree. Projection degree is the percentage of areas occupied by the projection signal divided by total area (see Materials and methods for more details). Grey, blue and red color are used for areas with projection degree with 1–14.9, 15–29.9 and 30 and more, respectively. Less than 1% in the projection degree was considered “None” for simplicity. Anatomical ROIs are ordered based on ontology presented in the Allen Brain Atlas (http://atlas.brain-map.org/).
