corticoamygdalar area

corticoamygdalar area (CAA)

The term corticoamygdalar area (CAA) refers to a histologically defined transitional zone between the piriform cortex (PIR) and the periamygdalar cortex (PAC). In the human it is located in the anterior parahippocampal gyrus (PHGa) between PIR medially and entorhinal cortex (ENT) laterally ( Mai-1997 ). In the rat ( Paxinos 2009b ), it is located between the anterior periamygdalar cortex (PACa) medially and PIR ( Franklin-2008 ) or entorhinal cortex ENT ( Hof-2000 ) laterally. CAA is not identified in the macaque ( Paxinos-2009a ). There the PIR is bounded directly by rostral ENT with the narrow part nearest PIR identified as the olfactory entorhinal cortex (ENTolf).

Also known as: cortex-amygdala transition zone, cortico-amygdaloid transition zone, corticoamygdaloid transition area, cortex-amygdala transition zone, layer 1, corticoamygdalar transition area, Area transitoria cortico-amydalaris, amygdalocortical (corticoamygdaloid) transition area, piriform-amygdalar area, corticoamygdalar area, periamygdaloid cortex, sulcal division, rostral entorhinal cortex
