The organization of axonal projections from the oval and fusiform nuclei of the bed nuclei of the stria terminalis (BST) was characterized with the Phaseolus vulgaris‐leucoagglutinin (PHAL) anterograde tracing method in adult male rats. Within the BST, the oval nucleus (BSTov) projects very densely to the fusiform nucleus (BSTfu) and also innervates the caudal anterolateral area, anterodorsal area, rhomboid nucleus, and subcommissural zone. Outside the BST, its heaviest inputs are to the caudal…

Organization of axonal projections from the anterolateral area of the bed nuclei of the stria terminalis
TLDR
The results indicate that the BSTal and BSTsc are parts of the same cell group, which plays a role in coordinating visceral and somatic motor responses (during ingestive behaviors, for example), especially in response to noxious stimuli.
Projections from bed nuclei of the stria terminalis, anteromedial area: Cerebral hemisphere integration of neuroendocrine, autonomic, and behavioral aspects of energy balance
TLDR
The overall pattern of axonal projections from the rat BSTam was analyzed with the Phaseolus vulgaris‐leucoagglutinin anterograde pathway tracing method and suggests that the BSTam is part of a striatopallidal differentiation involved in coordinating neuroendocrine, autonomic, and behavioral or somatic responses associated with maintaining energy balance homeostasis.
Projections from the rhomboid nucleus of the bed nuclei of the stria terminalis: Implications for cerebral hemisphere regulation of ingestive behaviors
TLDR
The basic organization of an exceptionally complex pattern of axonal projections from one distinct cell group of the bed nuclei of the stria terminalis, the rhomboid nucleus, was analyzed with the PHAL anterograde tract‐tracing method in rats, suggesting that the BSTrh is part of a striatopallidal differentiation involved in modulating the expression of ingestive behaviors.
Projections of the paraventricular and paratenial nuclei of the dorsal midline thalamus in the rat
TLDR
PV/PT receive a vast array of afferents from the brainstem, hypothalamus, and limbic forebrain, related to arousal and attentive states of the animal, and would appear to channel that information to structures of the limbicForebrain in the selection of appropriate responses to changing environmental conditions.
Projections from bed nuclei of the stria terminalis, dorsomedial nucleus: Implications for cerebral hemisphere integration of neuroendocrine, autonomic, and drinking responses
TLDR
The overall projection pattern of a tiny bed nuclei of the stria terminalis anteromedial group differentiation, the dorsomedial nucleus (BSTdm), was analyzed with the Phaseolus vulgaris‐leucoagglutinin anterograde pathway tracing method in rats and suggests that the BSTdm is part of a striatopallidal differentiation involved in coordinating the homeostatic and behavioral responses associated thirst and salt appetite.
Fiber connections of the compact division of the posterior pallial amygdala and lateral part of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis in the pigeon (Columba livia)
TLDR
The position and fiber connections of PoAc and BSTL are found to be important components of an interconnected neural circuit involving widespread regions of the neuraxis and mediating limbic‐visceral functions.

Inputs to the ventrolateral bed nucleus of the stria terminalis
TLDR
The ventrolateral bed nucleus of the stria terminalis receives inputs from a variety of brain sites implicated in hunger, salt and water intake, stress, arousal, and reward.
Paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus: Axonal projections to the brainstem
TLDR
It is suggested that the paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus may modulate a range of homeostatic functions, including cerebral and ocular blood flow, corneal and nasal hydration, ingestive behavior, sodium intake, and glucose metabolism, as well as cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and respiratory activities.

TLDR
The evidence indicates that the medial preoptic nucleus projects extensively to widely distributed regions in both the forebrain and brainstem, most of which also supply inputs to the nucleus, and a role in autonomic mechanisms is indicated.

TLDR
The results show that the anterior PVT is ideally situated to relay circadian timing information from theSCN to brain areas involved in visceral and motivational aspects of behavior and to provide feedback regulation of the SCN.

TLDR
The results indicate that the sub‐pallidal regions of the cat project to the (dorso)medial tip of the subthalamic nucleus and the adjoining lateral hypotha‐lamic area as well as to the ventral tegmental area and the greater extent of the dorsolateral tier of the substantia nigra pars compacta.

TLDR
Results show that BST neurons that project to the PB stain for the same neuropeptides as those in the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) that projectto the PB, demonstrating further the close anatomical relations between these two structures.
