[Rostro-caudal gradient in the amygdala structural and functional organisation].

New data supporting the assumptions of the hypothesis stating the rostro-caudal gradient in the amygdala structural and functional organization are presented. First formulated on the basis of particular location of amygdala zones possessing sexual dimorphism, the above hypothesis is corroborated by the works which characterize its structural organization, participation of amygdala rostral and caudal parts in ensuring various functions including behavior. The authors believe that the amygdala rostro-caudal gradient is predetermined by the phase character of its formation in phylogenesis.

[Neuronal structure of piriform cortex of anterior amygdaloid body of the rat brain].

The cytoarchitecture and neuronal organization were studied in piriform cortex at rostral and caudal levels of anterior amygdaloid body using the methods of Nissl and Golgi. The division of the piriform cortex into several areas is proposed, including basal area (area basalis), lateral area (area lateralis), and transitional, or terminal area (area terminalis), bordering the insular cortex. It is recommended to subdivide the lateral area into two subareas, L1 and L2. All the areas defined differ in their neuroarchitecture, structure of the layers and neuronal composition.
