Abstract:
:New dopaminergic terminal fields have been visualized in the rat cerebral neocortex, using two morphological methods based on distinct properties of the dopaminergic system: presence of the first synthetic enzyme, tyrosine hydroxylase, and high-affinity uptake of amines. Tyrosine hydroxylase was used as an immunocytochemical marker after destruction of the cortical noradrenergic system, induced either neonatally by 6-hydroxydopamine or later on by DSP4, and controlled by the absence of dopamine beta-hydroxylase immunoreactivity. The uptake and storage of exogenous amines in tissue sections, in the presence of selective high-affinity transport inhibitors, enabled the specific visualization of the dopaminergic system with fluorescence histochemistry. A dopaminergic innervation of low density was observed along a dorsal sagittal strip which extended from the genu of corpus callosum until about 2 mm behind the splenium and encompassed several distinct cytoarchitectonic areas in the sensorimotor and visual cortex (medial and lateral agranular field, area 18b), as well as in discrete zones of the retrosplenial granular 29c,b, and agranular 29d areas. The distribution of these dopaminergic fields suggested a columnar organization. Several characteristics of the dopaminergic innervation were similar to that of the superficial anterior cingulate cortex (area 24): the laminar distribution to the superficial I-III layers, the secondarily developed varicose aspect in catecholamine fluorescence histochemistry and the delayed postnatal ingrowth in contrast with the early prenatal dopaminergic input to the prefrontal cortex. These similarities suggested that the subpopulation of dopaminergic neurons which provides projections to the anterior cingulate cortex could also contribute to the motor and visual cortex and thus play a role in sensorimotor integration. The predictive value of these results in the ascent of the phylogenetic scale are further considered.
