title: [The spatial organization of the afferent projections in the canine nucleus accumbens].
abstract: Using the retrograde axonal marker transport it was shown that in dog nucleus accumbens medial and lateral segments receive similar projections. Cortical ones receive projections from mesocortical (prelimbic, infralimbic, orbital, insular and cingular) cortical fields, whereas subcortical receive projections from ventral tegmental field and basal nucleus of amygdala. The differences between projections of nucleus accumbens studied are that apart from the above-mentioned common afferents medial segment receives projections from allocortical (entorhinal, periamygdalar) fields and subicular portion of hippocampal formation while lateral segment receives projections from all dopaminergic portions of substantia nigra.
