3D cyto- and receptor architectonic map of macaque prefrontal area 8Bm (v1.0)|神经科学数据集|三维图谱数据集

A multimodal analysis of the macaque prefrontal cortex was carried out to create a 3D atlas integrating and reconciling discrepancies between previously published maps. This project involved a quantitative and statistically testable approach to the analysis of cytoarchitecture in the macaque monkey frontal lobe, in combination with an in vitro quantitative receptor autoradiographic analysis of the regional and laminar distribution patterns of 14 different neurotransmitter receptors. The borders of the identified areas were traced onto a reference macaque monkey brain in stereotaxic space. We provide here for the first time a map of prefrontal area 8Bm of the macaque monkey brain integrating cyto- and receptor architectonic features in stereotaxic space. It constitutes a valuable resource for the analysis of functional experiments with non-human primates and provides crucial data for modeling approaches with realistic synaptic dynamics.
