(2004, background): “Notably, the first Duvernoy layer, consisting of vessels with orientation approximately parallel to neural fibers, is entirely within the lower part of the molecular layer (Layer I), which in the rodent has the lowest concentration of cell bodies and highest density of synapses [74].”
