Mapping the brain of the chicken (Gallus gallus), with emphasis on the septal-hypothalamic region.
General and Comparative Endocrinology 2018 January 16
There has been remarkable progress in discoveries made in the avian brain, particularly over the past two decades. This review first highlights some of the discoveries made in the forebrain and credits the Avian Brain Nomenclature Forum, responsible for changing many of the terms found in the cerebrum and for stimulating collaborative research thereafter. The Forum facilitated communication among comparative neurobiologists by eliminating confusing and inaccurate names. The result over the past 15yearshas been a standardized use of avian forebrain terms. Nonetheless, additional changes are needed. The goal of the paper is to encourage a continuing effort to unify the nomenclature throughout the entire avian brain. To emphasize the need for consensus for a single name for each neural structure, I have selected specific structures in the septum and hypothalamus that our laboratory has been investigating, to demonstrate a lack of uniformity in names applied to conservative brain regions compared to the forebrain. The specific areas reviewed include the distributions of gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons and their terminal fields in circumventricular organs, deep-brain photoreceptors, gonadotropin inhibitory neurons and a complex structure and function of the nucleus of the hippocampal commissure.
