CTX (Cerebral cortex) synapses onto STRd (Striatum dorsal region)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: transsynaptic tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: About a third of rabies-labelled inputs to striatal cholinergic interneurons were in the cortex, a smaller share than for MSNs.
Measurements: fraction of labelled neurons: 0.293, n = 4

“The text reports 29.3% cortical input for cholinergic interneurons in n = 4 mice, lower than for MSNs.”
