Area TE is located at the latter part of the ventral visual
cortical pathway, which is essential for visual recognition of objects.
TE projects heavily to the perirhinal region, which is important for
visual recognition memory of objects. To study the organization of
projections from TE to the perirhinal (areas 35 and 36) and entorhinal
(area 28) cortices, we made focal injections of Phaseolus
vulgaris leucoagglutinin (PHA-L) and large injections of biocytin
or wheat germ agglutinin conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (WGA-HRP)
into anterior levels of TE in macaque monkeys. Injections of PHA-L into
the ventral part of anterior TE (TEav) resulted in labeling of
terminals distributed widely in area 36 (approximately one-half of its
total extent), although the injection sites were limited to 0.7 mm in
width. The labeled terminals tended to be denser in the medial part of
area 36. There was less dense but definite labeling in area 35 and the
lateral part of area 28. After a single injection of PHA-L or WGA-HRP
into the dorsal part of anterior TE (TEad), labeled terminals were
confined to a small region at the lateral part of area 36 (less than
one-tenth of its total extent). The projections to areas 35 and 28 from
TEad were much sparser than those from TEav.
The different patterns of projections to the perirhinal and entorhinal
cortices, together with previously reported differences in their
afferent and other efferent connections, suggest the functional
differentiation between TEav and TEad. The divergent projection from
TEav to the perirhinal cortex may facilitate the association of
different visual features in the perirhinal cortex.
