Retrograde labeling in DtHi and HCt following tracer injections into the olfactory tubercle. Tracer injections into the rostromedial Tu (A) consistently labeled a few dentate hilar neurons (D-H; arrows point to labeled cells), but failed to label the CA3 (D-F). A-E are from Et03-58W, F-H from Et01-47W. Some labeled neurons are also noted in the ipsilateral, anterior HCt (B, C) confirming previous anterograde data [28]. Remarkably, both the HCt and the DtHi project to the rostromedial Tu, but not to the Acb. Arrow heads point to similar location. OfB, olfactory bulb; PCx, paleocortex. Scale bars = 0.8 mm in A, 0.4 mm in B and D, 0.3 mm in F, 0.2 mm in C, E and H (as G).
