The inferior temporal (IT) cortex of 6 macaques was injected with horseradish peroxidase. HRP-labeled cells were found throughout IT cortex itself (outside the injection area) but were not found in the polysensory areas that surround IT dorsally, anteriorly and ventrally. Posterior to IT, labeled cells were found in the anterior parts of prestriate cortex. In one animal, the anterior prestriate region was injected with HRP. Labeled cells were then found in the regions of posterior prestriate cortex that receive direct projections from striate cortex. These results suggest that IT cortex receives information from striate cortex after at least two stages of processing in prestriate cortex.
向6只猕猴的颞下（IT）皮质注射辣根过氧化物酶。在整个IT皮质本身（注射区域之外）发现了HRP标记的细胞，但在IT背侧、前侧和腹侧周围的多感觉区域未发现。在IT后方，在纹前皮质前部发现了标记细胞。在一只动物中，向纹前皮质前部区域注射了HRP。然后在接受来自纹状皮质直接投射的纹前皮质后部区域发现了标记细胞。这些结果表明，IT皮质在纹前皮质至少经过两个处理阶段后接收来自纹状皮质的信息。
