TL;DR

Reciprocal anatomical connections between anterior and posterior divisions of the cingulate gyrus are described for the rabbit to demonstrate the existence of an associational anatomical system connecting posterior and posterior regions of the Cingulate Gyrus.

Abstract

Abstract Reciprocal anatomical connections between anterior and posterior divisions of the cingulate gyrus are described for the rabbit. Cells within the anterior limbic and precentral agranular regions of the rostral cingulate gyrus, predominantly from layer V, send afferebts to layer I of posterior cingulate and retrosplenial cortices. Cells from layers II and III of posterior cingulate and from layer V of retrosplenial cortex project rostrally to the anterior limbic and precentral agranular cortices. These data demonstrate the existence of an associational anatomical system connecting anterior and posterior regions of the cingulate gyrus.
