Abstract

The direct projections from the motor cortex to the ipsilateral interstitial nuleus of Cajal were investigated using anterograde (3H-Leucine and ³H-Proline autoradiography) tracing methods. Direct connections from the motor cortex to the interstitial nucleus were found only on the side ipsilateral to the injections.
