Another group of labelled fibers extends, throughout the lateral and ventral walls, to the most caudal part of the telencephalon, and, through the stria medullaris and the Habenular Commissure, crosses over to the controlateral hemisphere.
From the posterior commissure, some nerve fibers turned dorsally and entered into the deep pineal gland, a part of the pineal complex located in between the posterior and the Habenular Commissure.
The Habenular Commissure shows much interspecific variation in its course through the pineal.
The existence of the highest levels of pineal IRS near the Habenular Commissure, where the afferent fibers of the central pinealopetal innervation enter the gland, suggests that pineal somatostatin may be, at least in part, of neural origin..
The pineal tract courses caudally along the left side of the Habenular Commissure, and a few fibers penetrate the brain through the caudalmost portion of this commissure.
Its response disappeared after section of the olfactory interbulbar adhesion but was not affected by sectioning through either the anterior or the Habenular Commissure.
Transplant-derived astrocytes were found on the glia limitans along the entire circumference of the brain, in the hippocampal commissure, corpus callosum, internal capsule, entopeduncular nucleus, Habenular Commissure, brachium of the superior colliculus, optic tract, optic chiasm, and sensory root of the trigeminal nerve.
Labelled fibers apparently arising from these neurons travelled in the stria medullaris and the Habenular Commissure to terminate in the contralateral basal forebrain.
The MOB and AON project via the Habenular Commissure (HC) to the contralateral medial wall of the telencephalon.
The intraventricular blood vessels appeared to be derived from the choroid plexus, and typically took one of three courses in and around the surface of the deep pineal: (1) the vessels or their equivalent were located in the suprapineal recess with no indication of penetration into the substance of the deep pineal; (2) the vessels coursed from the suprapineal recess around the anterior surface of the Habenular Commissure to enter the ventral surface of the deep pineal; or (3) the vessels entered the parenchyma of the deep pineal from its dorsal surface and could be seen coursing through the substance of the gland.
Our findings also suggested that the L-ENKI fibers in the BZHb are supplied via the stria medullaris with an ipsilateral predominance and that, at the most caudal level, they arise not only from the ipsilateral stria medullaris but also from the contralateral stria medullaris via the Habenular Commissure..
