Anterograde visualization of projections from ventral orbitofrontal cortex in rat (case: F17)

High-resolution bright-field microscopy images (44) of serial coronal brain sections showing anterogradely labeled axons in orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) in a female adult Sprague Dawley rat. The anterograde tracer biotinylated dextran amine (BDA) was injected into the ventral orbitofrontal cortex (VOC). Brain sections are 300 µm apart and 50 µm thick. The dataset contains a complete series throughout the anterior-posterior extent of the brain, contributing to visualization of a topographically organized connectivity from OFC throughout the brain, including the published data on a topographically organized projection to the parahippocampal areas.

本数据集包含成年雌性斯普拉格-道利（Sprague Dawley）大鼠眶额叶皮层（OFC）内顺行标记轴突的连续冠状脑切片的44幅高分辨率明场显微镜图像。实验中，顺行示踪剂生物素化葡聚糖胺（BDA）被注射至腹侧眶额叶皮层（VOC）。脑切片间距为300μm，切片厚度为50μm。该数据集覆盖了大脑前后轴的完整连续切片系列，可用于可视化眶额叶皮层向全脑的拓扑组织化连接通路，其中包含已发表的关于其向海马旁区域的拓扑组织化投射的相关数据。
