Talk:Striatum
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It's not the case that the list of things that activate the striatum is based on a single study. Zink et al's contribution is only the suggestion, backed up with fMRI evidence, that the linking property is saliency. The other activating stimuli come from a string of different researchers. seglea 07:43, 24 May 2004 (UTC)
[edit] "Corpus striatum" and "striatum"
"Corpus striatum" is the same as "striatum", right? I just changed corpus striatum to redirect here instead of to basal ganglia, and just wanted to make sure this was correct. /skagedal[talk] 00:11, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
- The corpus striatum is actually the basal ganglia and internal capsule together. For now I just had it redirecting to the BG, but I'll make the corpus striatum page more clear. Semiconscious • talk 02:48, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
Corpus striatum is an old term (XVII century)comprising a lot of elements including thalamus, subthalamus and so on. C. and O. Vogt (1941) proposed to restrict the term in striatum for describing only what is striatal (composed of the above mentioned neuronal types). The term corpus striatum should no more be used.--Gerard.percheron 12:09, 6 August 2006 (UTC)G.percheron
Searching Braininfo yielded the following three matches:
- NeuroNames ancil-255
- NeuroNames hier-206 (per Savel'ev, same as basal ganglia)
- NeuroNames hier-207 (per Zilles, same as striatum) --Arcadian 05:27, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
I think there might be too much redundant information between striatum and primate basal ganglia MisterSheik 16:00, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
