Afferent subcortical connections to the lateral prefrontal cortex (orbital gyrus) in the dog brain were investigated using the horseradish peroxidase retrograde transport method. It was shown that: (i) the main projection to this area derives from the ventral and intermediate regions of the mediodorsal nucleus of the thalamus, (ii) fairly rich projection arises from the midline, intralaminar as well as from ventromedial and lateroposterior thalamic nuclei, (iii) scanty extrathalamic projection to the lateral prefrontal area originates from several other structures like claustrum, hypothalamus, amygdala, ventral tegmental area, raphe nuclei and locus coeruleus. Distribution of labeled cells after particular injections showed that in the orbital gyrus two subdivisions may be distinguished: dorsal and ventral. It is suggested that the dorsal orbital subdivision in dog corresponds to the lateral prefrontal cortex in monkey.
采用辣根过氧化物酶逆行运输法，对犬脑内传入到外侧前额叶皮质（眶回）的皮质下连接进行了研究。结果表明：（i）该区域的主要投射源自丘脑背内侧核的腹侧和中间区域；（ii）从中线、板内核以及丘脑腹内侧核和丘脑后外侧核有相当丰富的投射；（iii）外侧前额叶区域少量的丘脑外投射源自一些其他结构，如屏状核、下丘脑、杏仁核、腹侧被盖区、中缝核和蓝斑。特定注射后标记细胞的分布表明，在眶回中可区分出两个亚区：背侧和腹侧。有人提出犬的背侧眶回亚区相当于猴的外侧前额叶皮质。
