Projections of the suprachiasmatic nucleus to stress-related areas in the rat hypothalamus: A light and electron microscopic study
Open accessAbstract
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the sites in the hypothalamus where the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) may influence corticosteroid secretion. In spite of the well established, SCN-mediated, daily rhythms in adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) and corticosteroid secretion, previous studies determining the projections of the suprachiasmatic nucleus failed to illustrate direct connections with corticotrophin-releasing hormone neurons (CRH). In order to identify where in the central nervous system the SCN may influence corticosteroid secretion, areas were selected that contained SCN efferents contacting neurons involved in the stress response. To achieve this in the present study, SCN efferents were visualized by Pha-L tract-tracing, together with the neurons involved in the stress response by immunocytochemical staining for c-fos protein. The sites where these efferents contacted c-fos-positive neurons were established by light microscopic double staining and electron microscopic immunocytochemical studies. It appeared that apart from the medial parvocellular area of the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus, many more regions showed fos-positive neurons. Sites where SCN efferents contacted such neurons are limited only to areas immediately adjacent to these putative CRH neurons but are not concentrated on these neurons themselves. These areas consist of the periventricular and rostral PVN together with the dorsomedial hypothalamus: all three regions are known to project into the PVN. Therefore, it is concluded that the SCN transmits its information related to corticosteroid secretion via interneurons in and around the PVN to the CRH-containing neurons, rather than by a direct interaction with these neurons themselves.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
