HIP (Hippocampal region) projects to BLA (Basolateral amygdalar nucleus)

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: retrograde tracer
Sign: unknown
Evidence: Retrograde rAAV2 injected into the basal amygdala labelled ventral hippocampal neurons, which overlapped with GRP-positive cells.
Source: Dopamine release and dopamine-related gene expression in the amygdala are modulated by the gastrin-releasing peptide in opposite directions during stress-enhanced fear learning and extinction
