Similar layered pallial systems have also been shown in avian and non-avian reptiles. Despite sharing similar needs for processing external information and remembering important sites, teleosts have generally not evolved such defined layered organizations in their dorsal telencephalon. One exception is gobiiform fishes in which a subregion of the dorsal telencephalon is organized into several fiber-rich and soma-dense layered subregions. We investigated the connectivity of these layered subregions (referred to as the dorsal telencephalic area X, Dx), as well as the connectivity of the medial (Dm) and dorsolateral (dDl) parts of the dorsal telencephalon through tracer injections. We found that extratelencephalic projections reach Dm, Dx, and dDl from different regions within the preglomerular complex (PG): Dm receives input from different PG regions: PG region 1 (PG1), PG region 2 (PG2), and the commissural PG (PGc), but not from the nucleus prethalamicus (PTh). In contrast, both Dx and dDl receive projections from the lateral PTh (PTh-l) and the medial PTh (PTh-m). We find that projections to dDl come from more ventral regions of PTh-m than those that project to Dx. The majority of ascending connections could be found within the telencephalon itself, with each of the telencephalic zones receiving its own distinct pattern of intratelencephalic afferent connectivity.

This study investigates the structural organization and cellular composition of the V-SVZ in the juvenile swine brain (3–5 months), providing novel insights into neuroblast migration in gyrencephalic species. Using immunohistochemistry combined with transmission and scanning electron microscopy, we redefined the cytoarchitecture of the swine V-SVZ, identifying four distinct cellular layers. Layer 1 consists of a pseudostratified epithelium of glial fibrillary acidic protein-positive ependymal cells, whose cilia and microvilli extend into the ventricular lumen, frequently surrounding supraependymal axons. Beneath it, layer 2 is composed of astrocytic and radial glia processes and contains occasional clusters of doublecortin (DCX)-positive cells with prominent microtubules and elongated cytoplasm, indicative of a migratory phenotype. Layer 3 is further subdivided into a low-cell-density sublayer 3a, enriched with myelinated axons and scattered DCX<sup>+</sup> clusters, and a high-cell-density sublayer 3b, characterized by large groups of DCX<sup>+</sup> migratory cells. In sagittal sections, these cells form long chains oriented parallel to the ventricular surface. Neuroblasts emerging from the dorsal V-SVZ migrate caudorostrally through the rostral migratory stream toward the olfactory bulb. The layered organization of the swine V-SVZ resembles that of humans, where DCX<sup>+</sup> chains persist up to 18 months of age, positioning the swine as a valuable model for investigating postnatal plasticity and neurogenic potential in gyrencephalic brains.

Removal of retinal input early in development in animal model experiments reproduces several structural characteristics of the primary visual cortex in humans who have been blinded early in life. Yet, many questions regarding how the loss of retinal activity affects the organization and cellular composition of the visual cortex remain to be answered. Here, we report alterations to primary visual cortex development in ferrets over the postnatal day 20 (P20) to P38 age range that arise following bilateral enucleation on P7. Most notably, during this age range, V1 is observed to become thicker in P7 enucleates than in control animals. While this effect recapitulates observations of abnormally thick visual cortex in early blind humans, the observation that the thickness difference is observable by P32, while the cortex is still developing, has implications that run counter to prevailing interpretations of the V1 thickness difference. In order to further characterize the cytoarchitectural development of V1, we quantify the number and distribution of the two largest populations of inhibitory neurons through postnatal development, illustrating how the emergence of visual input–dependent organization displays a unique time course in both controls and enucleates. We observe perturbations to macroscopic anatomical development with only minor effects on the number and distribution of interneurons present throughout late corticogenesis following binocular enucleation. Our results demonstrate that postnatal enucleation can produce substantial and durable alterations to the mature organization of the visual cortex, likely mirroring those occurring in human patients who lose sight early in life. Our findings identify specific cellular and molecular alterations and highlight challenges that will need to be addressed in the design and development of restorative therapeutics.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":15552,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Neurology","volume":"533 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144367486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study's primary aim is to determine whether the intrinsic laryngeal muscles contain muscle spindles and Golgi tendon organs using VGLUT1, a marker for proprioceptors. This is a novel approach, as prior studies have relied on morphology and myosin composition to study this question. Larynges of 62 Sprague-Dawley rats distributed across five age groups were immunostained with VGLUT1 and other neuromarkers. Muscle spindles were identified in the lateral thyroarytenoid muscles of just three P8 rats, and no Golgi tendon organs were noted. VGLUT1-positive intramuscular receptor-like entities and flower spray-like endings were found in the intrinsic laryngeal muscles, and mucosal formations were observed clustered at the medial surfaces of the arytenoid and aryepiglottic folds. Employing VGLUT1 immunostaining, this study shows that rat intrinsic laryngeal muscles rarely contain muscle spindles and do not possess Golgi tendon organs. This suggests the possibility that the larynx exhibits a unique proprioceptive apparatus. VGLUT1-positive intramuscular and mucosal structures provide candidates for an alternative system. Further defining the role of these structures will increase our understanding of vocal fold function and ultimately lead to better treatment of vocal fold disorders.</p>","PeriodicalId":15552,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Neurology","volume":"533 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cne.70062","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144300117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The lamina circuitry in mantis shrimp (stomatopods) is both interesting and complex, as there are 16 different types of photoreceptors contained within the mid-band region of the eye. Using serial block-face scanning electron microscopy, we have reconstructed photoreceptor terminals and lamina interneurons in two major superfamilies with different visual ecologies. Neurons follow the same general pattern as other crustaceans but with notable differences in gross anatomy from insects. The photoreceptors form bulbous terminals in the lamina, following the same overall connectivity pattern in all lamina cartridges across species examined and eye regions. The photoreceptor terminals themselves appear to be complex, with many large mitochondria, a notable difference between insects and stomatopods. Connectivity between photoreceptors and interneurons, as well as cross-cartridge connections, is estimated based on neuronal overlap. Lamina monopolar cells follow previous research in stomatopods and crustaceans, with a set of common neuron types that may provide the beginning of an opponency circuit. Additionally, neurons that extend beyond their parent cartridge in the midband show a preference for branching between rows within the same visual column of cells, as well as some connections within the same row. This added complexity suggests that the stomatopod lamina performs a unique processing of visual signals versus other crustaceans and insects and provides further evidence for the emerging hypotheses around the processing of information by the scanning visual system of stomatopods.</p>","PeriodicalId":15552,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Comparative Neurology","volume":"533 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cne.70063","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144264499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
